Dear Friends,
Despite all the snow and wind, spring is on the way. As the snow melts, I’ve seen buds of spring flowers, and have you noticed that it is staying lighter longer? On the 14th, we’ll do that old spring forward and turn our clocks ahead an hour. Then, the following Wednesday we wear Harvest green and become Irish for St. Patrick. To round out the week, Saturday the 20th marks the first day of spring. It’ll be here before we know it!
Speaking of time flying, it’s hard to believe Harvest is celebrating its 10th Anniversary. Visit our branches and our new website often to learn about our special drawings and customer appreciation events. If you have some great photos you’d like to share with us (in good taste and properly identified), please drop them off to Jeneen Harry at our Pennsville Office or email them to jharry @harvestcommunitybank.com. In addition, I hope you’ll help us in supporting the Red Cross. This is a terrific organization that is always there in times of need – not only for residents of Salem County, but also for those devastated by the earthquakes in Haiti and Chile.
For Harvest shareholders, please mark your calendars. Thursday, April 22, we will hold our Annual Meeting at the Washington Club in Penns Grove. The meeting will begin promptly at 9 a.m. Our Annual Report and accompanying shareholder materials will be mailed later this month.
Keep the snow shovel handy, but look for signs of spring and warmer weather!
Dennis H. Engle
President & CEO
