News from First Interstate Bank of Polson
POLSON — Under the leadership of Shad Hupka, Branch President of First Interstate Bank of Polson, FIB employees April McLain, Randi Horner, Donna Gebhardt, Liz Johnson, Dave Rensvold, Michelle Morgan, and Jenaya Garcia, spent the afternoon of Sept. 8 working on the street corner flowerbed bump-outs for First Interstate Bank’s Volunteer Day. They were led by bump-out maintenance volunteers, Janice Donovan and Toni Young Whealon, who are local P.E.O. members.
Together the group spent several hours weeding, trimming, picking up garbage in the bump-outs and pruning shoots from the trees along Main Street. New plants were added to areas needing additional vegetation. By the end of the work session, there were 15 full garage bags plus 10 tired people. The bump-outs are much cleaner and ready for winter.
Various women volunteers and many P.E.O. members work during the spring, summer and fall to keep the areas nice and complementing the beautiful hanging flower baskets in Polson. The ladies are in their 60s, 70s, & 80s. If any group or person would like to help with this project, please contact Suz Rittenhouse, at 406-260-0480.
