From the CEO & EVP, Don Hole “Put me in coach, I’m ready to Play!”
With credit to John Fogarty, the lyrical tune of this classic rock song filled the room at the final general session of the 42nd CBI Management Conference and Annual Convention. The new CBI Board of Directors entered in baseball jerseys festooned with their names and the “Team Main Street” logo and visited with the crowd while hundreds of miniature soft stress reduction baseballs filled the air. After introductions, incoming president Rod Rowland from Landmands Bank in Audubon, shared his vision for CBI in the the upcoming year. That vision includes more community bankers involved in the activities of the association; from Leaders of Tomorrow, to our committees, to education, and to political and PAC involvement. If you Above: CBI Board members enter the Second General were there, you heard all that Session at the 42nd Management Conference & Annual Convention and rally Team Main Street. and hopefully took it to heart. Reality is however, that two out of three member banks do NOT attend the Convention for a variety of justifiable reasons. And that is exactly the reason we now have alternative events across the state so that no member bank is more than an hour away from an opportunity to network with like minded community bankers. The next event coming up is the second annual STATE FAIR CONFERENCE, being held on Tuesday August 13 at Prairie Meadows Conference Center in Altoona. A content packed day long affair includes legislative panels, educational sessions, a mini trade show, and our Governor and Lt. Governor. Different sessions tailored for CEO/presidents, bankers, and directors are scheduled. All in one day. Won’t you come? In order to bring the community banking network even closer, our annual Community Bank Summits held around the state, bring top notch speakers and peer networking to a location near you. The fall Summits are October 15-17 in Algona, Johnston, and Council Bluffs. Will you be there? Gathering community bankers to network is beneficial to bankers and to CBI’s national efforts to protect your bank and franchise. Please pick one or more events to attend, especially if you have not been to a CBI meeting recently. Your team is calling. Are you ready to play?
