Chandler Employee Coordinates “Operation Christmas Child” for Branch

Cortney Ruble, a part time teller at the CNB Chandler branch, (as well as a full time student) has headed up the contributions to Operation Christmas Child.  This year, the Chandler branch doubled its efforts from last year by donating 12 boxes.  Operation Christmas Child gives shoe boxes filled with gifts to needy children around the world and helps in leading them to Jesus Christ.  The program is operated by Samaritan’s Purse, a non-denominational, evangelical Christian outreach program.  If you would like more information on how you can donate, visit www.samaritanspurse.org. Thank you Cortney for your hard work in coordinating this!

Tyler’s Bras for the Cause Benefit a Success!

Tyler Grande Branch Manager Sheila Dixon and Vice President/Lender Sandra Browning co-chaired the event “Bras for the Cause” that took place recently in Tyler at Hollytree Country Club.  Sheriff J.

Komen Foundation, American Cancer Society and Women’s Council of Realtors.  Sheila Dixon said, “It was a lot of hard work, but a lot of fun and we raised a great amount of money for such a worthy cause.”   CNB is very proud of these ladies and all the employees who volunteered and attended this event!

CNB Expands into Downtown Longview

Kilpatrick Life Insurance Company and Citizens National Bank (CNB) are pleased to announce that a multi-year lease has been signed by CNB to occupy the Kilpatrick Life Insurance Company building at 200 N. Fredonia located in downtown Longview.  Kilpatrick is eager to have a bank return to the building and both organizations are looking forward to adding to the growth and revitalization of downtown Longview.

Brad Tidwell, President & CEO of CNB stated, “Everyone at Citizens National Bank is very excited about the opportunity to open the downtown Longview branch.  Our expansion and new presence downtown will allow Citizens to have a much larger footprint geographically and we will be able to serve Longview better than ever before.  We greatly appreciate the significant investment that Kilpatrick is making along with CNB to the building.  Without them this new venture would not be possible.” 

“Kilpatrick Life Insurance Company is delighted that Citizens National Bank has chosen the Kilpatrick Life Building in Longview as its newest location,”   said J. Brian Morrison, President and CEO.  “I think it speaks volumes when a bank like Citizens chooses to bring 25 new jobs to downtown Longview.”  Kilpatrick Life Insurance Company was founded in 1932 and has $1 billion of in-force insurance.

Kilpatrick and Citizens are making a significant investment in the building, with renovations to the basement, first and second floors, as well as the parking garage, exterior of the main building and drive-thru convenience center.  CNB will lease almost 20,000 square feet of total space.

CNB anticipates opening the drive-thru convenience center, located at the intersection of Methvin and Green Streets, by November 1, 2012, with the main bank slated to open by April 1, 2013.  CNB currently serves Longview with branches located at 3412 N. 4th Street @ Hawkins Parkway, 5001 Estes Parkway in Lakeport and 3600 Gilmer Road in Spring Hill.

CNB anticipates employing a staff of approximately 25 at their newest Longview location.   This location will also be the home of CNB’s Longview Trust Department.  Both Kilpatrick and CNB are committed to Longview and its continued growth.
