Community Update  

THE COMMUNITY Bank Marcoola loves to give back and they will be hosting a community afternoon on Friday, May 2 from 12-3 pm with lots of giveaways, music, food and lots of great community spirit, and everyone is invited!  

With a cyclone teasing the coast recently and some pretty wild storms rolling through, we’ve all been reminded that staying connected isn’t just handy, it’s essential. That’s why the team at Community Bank Marcoola jumped into action, handing out wind-up radios like they were going out of fashion. 

These little lifesavers do it all – tune into emergency broadcasts, keep you updated on the weather, and even charge your phone when the power’s out (because no one wants 3% battery when you’re stuck inside with only snacks and storm updates). 

Luckily, the cyclone gave us a miss, but not without a dramatic exit. We still copped the heavy rain, a bit of flooding, and power outages just to keep things interesting. But our team was ready, getting radios into the hands of locals who needed them most. 

And because we love any excuse for a good time, we’re keeping the community vibes going. Join us on Friday, May 2, from 12–3 pm, outside our Marcoola branch at 930 David Low Way, for a fun-filled afternoon. We’re teaming up with Hot91.1 for an outside broadcast, plus there’ll be some giveaways that will help with everyday living, tunes, games, and yes, a free sausage sizzle. Come for the snags and stay for the community spirit. 

If you’re into banking with people who actually live here, care here, and give back here, maybe it’s time to come say hi. When you bank with us, you’re helping build a stronger local community with up to 80% of profits returned to the community each year. So when you bank with us, you’re not just making a deposit, you’re making a difference. 

Pop in and see the team at 930 David Low Way, Marcoola, we’d love to help you make the switch.
