Bronco Around Town – October 2024

October was a busy month for Bronco, and we had plenty to celebrate and talk about as fall kicked into high gear around Franklin and Southampton. Here are the highlights.

We spent a night on the town on Tuesday, October 1^st, participating in both City of Franklin and Southampton County National Night Out events. This annual community-building experience promotes police and community partnerships to make our neighborhoods safer and more caring places to live. We love being part of this event each year and had a great time serving up popsicles in Southampton and tons of fun with bubbles at the City of Franklin.

For Breast Cancer Awareness Month our team wore pink on October 11^th to honor those affected by breast cancer, celebrate the survivors and remember the loved ones we’ve lost. Together, we can raise awareness and encourage early detection—it could save a life.

Bronco was proud to sponsor this year’s annual City of Franklin Trick or Trot 5K and Pumpkin Dash on October 12^th, co-hosted by the Franklin-Southampton Area United Way and the City of Franklin to encourage unity in our community and bring hundreds of participants to our downtown area to promote the city. Proceeds from the event fund local community impact projects.

Bronco staff and Board Members were thrilled to celebrate Kelsey Derby on Friday, October 16^th, who was honored as one of Inside Business’ Top 40 Under 40.

Members came out on Friday, October 18^th to safely and securely shred their sensitive documents. In partnership with Doma Shred, we disposed of over 6,000 pounds!

Also, Trunk or Treat Halloween fun kicked off with Early Childhood Western Tidewater! We loved seeing all the fun costumes, chatting about Buzz Club and sharing fun treats!

On Thursday, October 24^th, Bronco’s Godwin branch team celebrated winning Suffolk News Herald Locals Choice Awards, which celebrate our unwavering commitment to excellence—from delivering exceptional member experiences to providing top-tier financial products and services. We’re grateful for the recognition, proud of our incredible team and inspired to continue supporting our community.
