Dear Capital Region Community:

Local, what does that mean? It seems everyone is telling you they are local, but what does local really mean, is it simply having an office in our community or does it go beyond that? To me a local business is one whose corporate offices are local, employees are local people, who supports local organizations and charities and whose business emphasis is exclusively focused on the local consumer and community. Pioneer Bank is a local bank and I am proud of that.

Our Capital Region has so much to offer and many opportunities for businesses to grow and prosper that I can't find a reason to look beyond our area for Pioneer's continued growth. I am excited at the prospect of working with our local communities to assist in building strong and secure financial futures for all of us who live and work in the Capital Region. There are many fine options for your banking business, but I'm convinced that the experience you will have at Pioneer Bank will be as unique and special as the Capital Region itself.

Pioneer has been fortunate throughout our 118 years to be able to stay true to our original premise of helping local people and businesses with their banking needs. Today we are proud to have expanded our strongly focused, hometown customer service to area businesses and municipalities. Let's be honest, banking products are pretty much the same at most financial institutions, what really makes a difference is the experience you have when you conduct your financial business with them. I care about every customer who entrusts Pioneer with their banking business, and I think that is what sets us apart from others.

Pioneer's future plans include staying a mutually held bank so that the sole focus is on our customer, continued expansion within our Capital Region, personalized service that exceeds your expectations and products and services that are right for our way of life.

Pioneer's 15 local branches are staffed with exceptional people whose goal is to make your visit to their branch uniquely Pioneer. With most branches open until 7:00 or 8:00 PM weeknights and 3:00 or 4:00 PM on Saturdays our message is clear; we want your banking business.

If you're currently a Pioneer customer - thank you for your trust, it is greatly appreciated by us. If you're not; I encourage you to give us a try. Our banking products are very competitive, easy to understand and straightforward and our service is personal and focused toward your unique needs. Whether you're an individual in need of a new checking account, a business looking to expand, a municipality searching for competitive products with local investment, or whatever your banking needs - try Pioneer, you won't be disappointed.

Our region has amazing people, businesses and opportunity and I am proud to have grown up here and now head up a home grown bank whose roots reach deep into our history and whose branches touch our future. Be part of our growth, visit any of our 15 branches and experience the Pioneer difference.

With warm regards and sincere thanks,

John M. Scarchilli
President & CEO
