Commercial Bank & Trust is proud to announce a strategic initiative to unify sister bank, First State Bank of Warren, into the Commercial Bank operation effective June 24, 2024. Given the proximity of locations, unifying as one bank under the Commercial Bank charter will aid customer access and convenience. Customers will have access to a total of eight banking offices and nine ATMs in the southeast Arkansas communities of Monticello, Warren, Hermitage and Hampton.

Both Banks were purchased by Bennie Ryburn, Sr., more than 50-years ago, and have operated as separate and distinct banks since that time. Todd Smith, president of Commercial Bank and First State Bank of Warren was asked about the reason for the change and described it this way, ‘Joining the two banks together will remove back-office redundancies and allow us to offer greater convenience, and better products and services such as enhanced technology for customers. It will also allow our staff to spend more time with customers and less on administrative duties that act as a barrier to service. It’s a win-win for the communities we serve because no staffing, philanthropic-giving or community development will be reduced. We will eliminate the structural red tape of operating with two names.’ (more…)

Numerous volunteers from SeaArk Boats dedicated time and effort to the Hope Place in Monticello on March 21st.  Under the leadership of employees Charlie Hoover and Jesse Cartwright, a team of SeaArk volunteers undertook essential maintenance and beautification projects at the local shelter.

The day’s tasks focused on vital upkeep, starting with pressure washing to clean the walkways, which brightened the shelter’s outward appearance. Volunteers cleared out withered shrubs and spread fresh mulch, breathing new life into the landscape. They also did some necessary repairs to the facility’s wheelchair ramp, alongside other enhancements that contributed to the inviting feel of Hope Place.

“This is one of several initiatives that we have planned for the year. I am grateful that we can give a little back to these organizations that do so much for our community..”, shared SeaArk Boats President Steve Henderson.

SeaArk Boats is committed to making a positive impact in the community, not only through its business operations but also through active engagement in local service projects.
