Sonora Bank opens, gifts $50k to city
Sonora Bank opened a new branch in Wimberley to much fanfare with more than 100 people in attendance at the ribbon cutting.
This full-service branch will provide personal, retail and business banking services, along with residential and commercial loans, CDs, safety deposit boxes and more.
“We are pleased to bring our brand of banking to the Wimberley community,” said Bob Malone, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sonora Bank. “Sonora Bank’s first branch opened in Sonora, Texas in 1900 with a focus on serving the ranching community. While our footprint across West Texas and the Hill Country have grown, we are proud to have stayed true to our roots by offering personalized customer service in a hometown atmosphere.”
The Wimberley branch is the seventh Sonora Bank location. The 4,500 square foot, barn-styled bank features three drive thru lanes, a gazebo and a windmill on the property.
Sonora also announced a $50,000 donation to the city of Wimberley stating that they were committed to helping support the community.
Wimberley’s team includes Josh Smith, Vice President and Branch Manager; Dawn Riley, Assistant Branch Manager; Pam Ferguson, Personal Banker; and Mariah Everitt, Personal Banker.
“We picked Wimberley because it is a community town and we are a community bank,” Smith said. “… We are going to offer a lot of the products and services this community needs… it is another good place to do business and help out the community.”
