“Whether it's skiing, rafting, snowboarding,hiking, mountain biking or hanging out atThe Rack, we can't imagine having ourbusiness anywhere else."

With housing prices at a low and lifestyles at a high,now's the time to make your move to Franklin County!For more information, contact Alison Hagerstrom. Alison Hagerstrom,

When it comes to knowing your customers,it’s pretty hard to beat Jay Branch Manager Lorna Niednerand Lender Diane Jackson.

Knowing the towns and people you serve may not meanmuch to some bankers, but, to Franklin Savings Bank’s JayTeam, it means everything.

Why wouldanyone bankanywhere else?
