MONTGOMERY, N.Y. (June 5, 2013) – Walden Savings Bank is pleased to announce its most recent community endeavor to partner with Adopt-a-Highway. The project, part of a national initiative working toward cleaner highways and communities, will be led by Walden Savings Bank’s Class of 2012.
Beginning in June, Walden Savings Bank employees will volunteer their time throughout each year to clean up litter along a 1-mile stretch from Black Hawk Road to Main Street in Pine Bush. A sign will be installed at this location to recognize the Bank’s commitment and dedication.
“Walden Savings Bank is always looking for new ways to further our involvement and commitment to our community,” said Derrik Wynkoop, President and CEO of Walden Savings Bank. “This effort was a true collaboration amongst our newest team members, and we are excited to begin our work with Adopt-a-Highway. The project represents a legacy for both the Bank and the Class of 2012.”
The class is comprised of employees who joined Walden Savings Bank in the 2012 calendar year. As part of its dedication to local communities, the Bank each year urges its team to become involved in a new venture or volunteer initiative to give back and positively impact the region. This project, led by Training and Development Manager Johnnieanne Hansen, is part of an orientation program to welcome new employees to the Walden Savings Bank team.
