We are counting the days until our annual BCBA convention!  I hope you have already marked your calendars to join us.  The event will be held August 20-22, 2022, at the Embassy Suites in Bowling Green, KY.  The 2023 theme is “Keepin' it Between the Lines”. I think this theme is very appropriate on so many levels.  I hope you agree that “Keepin' it Between the Lines” is our goal as we continue our journey to maintain and grow our community banks.

 

One of the highlights of the event will be awarding the Charles D. Bennett Education Scholarship to an employee of a Bluegrass Community Bankers Association member bank.  The proceeds of our annual silent auction provide the funding for this great educational opportunity.

 

The President and/or CEO of each institution is invited to take this opportunity to nominate an employee from their bank for this scholarship.  To nominate a community banker, you may choose several options to submit. 

 

Complete the online form and use the submit button to SEND.  Or, you may email directly to info@bluegrassbankers.com or mail to BCBA, P. O. Box 401, Franklin, KY 42135-0401,

 

The scholarship is available for use at all nationally recognized banking schools in the United States and is valued up to a maximum of $2,500 per year, per winner.  That’s a $7,500 value to the chosen bank!!!  But the biggest value is the incredible investment in a employee.

 

All member Presidents/CEO’s are encouraged you to nominate someone from their bank to take advantage of this opportunity.  Should their employee be chosen, they will receive advance notice so they can register them for the convention to receive the scholarship in person.  Please submit nominations by August 12, 2022.
