As part of LNB's entry into Cayuga County, the Bank outreached to local merchants to join their Bonus Bucks Program. Nearly 60 merchants participated in the Bank's celebration of the community by accepting Bonus Bucks certificates at their businesses. LNB awarded over $10,000 in certificates to lucky winners that were drawn from entry slips completed at their Downtown Auburn and Grant Avenue locations. Weekly drawings began in early May of last year and were completed this month. "Our Bonus Bucks Program was the Bank's way of including the community in the celebration of our new offices," said Demetrius Murphy, Branch Manager. "I feel fortunate to head up the Bank's efforts in my hometown of Auburn, and helping to build the local economies and enhance the vitality of the communities we serve." On June 20, grand prizes were distributed to three local residents at a luncheon held in the Cayuga Room in the Grant Avenue office. Mike Tardibone was the lucky recipient of $250 Bonus Bucks certificates, Melina Carnicelli received $500 Bonus Bucks certificates, and Taylor Sherman was the grand prize winner of $1,000 in Bonus Bucks certificates. All three winners were thrilled with their awards and are looking forward to their shopping sprees at participating merchants. LNB continues to offer special grand opening savings rates at both their branch offices and invites the community to stop in and speak with their local staff.
