Serving Our Youth!! On May 1st, our Zoogles Savings Club was offered to our younger members, ages 0-12. At the same time, we openrf our Teen Club Savings account for youth ages 13-17. We will have coloring contests and other savings promotions for the young ones. Earn a ZooBuck for deposits of $5 or more when the child comes in. Collect enough ZooBucks and you can have a special prize. For our "older" youth, we'll have special gifts also. If the kids are not members, sign them up! We have special gifts for opening the accounts and we have created special new membership cards just for them. Our Summer Reading Program for Zoogles members will expire August 31, 2010. Bring in the titles and authors of 3 books that you have read and we'll put your name into a drawing for a $25 gift card to Border's. So you can read even more! And of course, something for the Teen Club. For every deposit of $25 or more you make from July 1 to August 31, you can enter your name to win a $25 i-Tunes music card. You can save a lot and then listen to more of your favorite tunes. Winner will be announced September 1 for both programs. Special Loan Rates for autos and 12-month Loans We have reduced our rates for new or used cars for years 2010-2007 to only 4.99% APR! You can reduce this rate by 1/4% when you have automatic payments. If you have a 10% down payment, another 1/4% will be used to lower the rate. Using both options, you can have a rate as low as 4.49% APR. Now that's a deal. Autos for years 2006-2003 will receive a rate of 5.99% APR. For older cars and more details on terms, please call our office. We are offering a back-to-school loan special at 8.9% APR for 12 months. This may help ease the pain of tuition and books. Both the auto and 12-month loan special will expire September 30, 2010. Statements available through Home Banking You can now see your statement activity by going to our Home Banking page.
