CUSTOMERS and staff celebrated the 10th birthday of the Bendigo Bank in Cranbourne on Monday.
Branch manager Wayne Smith said it was a wonderful achievement for the bank to attain 10 years of service to the local community.
Mr Smith said the bank enjoyed supporting local events such as the Take on the Track Fun Run in Cranbourne, which was held for the first time this year.
“We’re here to service the community from a financial perspective, and we also believe our staff need to be out and about in the community. We feel that it’s like a big family and we like to be seen to be involved,” Mr Smith said.
The Rotary Club of Cranbourne cooked a sausage sizzle as part of the celebrations on Monday.
