Greetings!
Greetings! This time of year is well-suited for reflecting on the accomplishments of the past year and looking ahead to the coming year and the new opportunities that come with it. Here at Skowhegan Savings, we are fortunate to mark 140 years that we've been in business and are happy to continue to serve our communities with the same integrity and level of commitment that Abner Coburn established with the bank in 1869. This commitment goes beyond the daily banking transactions made everyday to volunteer hours and contributions our employees make. We have a dress casual program that raises funds for local charities throughout the year. Each participating employee contributes a dollar for each day they dress down. Those funds then go to a different organization each month. In October, this program raised $480 that will be distributed to local food pantries; in November $320 was collected for community fuel assistance programs. Our various branches coordinate additional giving opportunities this time of year- collecting hats and mittens, toys for children to warm and brighten their holidays, or food for those in need. We're also in the process of collecting requests for our charitable giving program that focuses on economic development and financial literacy. If you are a member or know of a nonprofit engaged in this kind of work, please encourage them to apply online by December 31st, for this round of awards. Looking ahead, we've upgraded our online banking services and will continue to expand these offerings in the coming months. Below you'll find information on our eTegrity services and the new Electronic Documents service - safe, secure and easy ways to manage your banking from anywhere, at anytime. Our branches will be closed on Christmas Day and New Year's Day. We invite you and your family to any of our branches on December 24th, until our 1:00 pm closing time, for refreshments and holiday cheer. Wishing you and yours a very happy holiday season and a prosperous 2010!  John Witherspoon President & CEO

eTegrity Services - The Benefits of Electronic Banking
There is a difference between online banking and an online bank. At Skowhegan Savings, our eTegrity services offer users a safe, secure and convenient banking option, backed by the bank and local employees you know. eTegrity electronic banking offers a range of services designed to meet the needs of all our personal and commercial banking customers. From checking your balance and transferring funds, to online bill pay and telephone banking, eTegrity can provide the flexibility you want with the security you need.
Here are the top 5 reasons to use eTegrity services:
1) Convenience. It's not always easy to visit a branch office. Bank from your computer or phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Check balances, transfer funds, stop payment on a check and monitor transactions when it's convenient for you.
2) Security. eTegrity services operate through a secure network that is password and/or PIN protected.
3) Save money. Use online bill pay and forgo checks and stamps for monthly bills.
4) It's from Skowhegan Savings. We don't call it eTegrity for nothing. Our electronic services are operated by us - your local bank and our customer service representatives are available to answer questions by phone, email, secure messaging or in person at the branch nearest you.
5) It's FREE. eTegrity services are offered to all Skowhegan Savings account holders free of charge.
It's easy to sign up for eTegrity. Visit the Electronic Banking section of our Web site, call 1-800-303-9511 or visit the branch location nearest you.
