You are invited to celebrate “Banking on America” at the 2013 Quad States Convention June 9-11 at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center and Rushmore Plaza Holiday Inn in Rapid City, South Dakota.

A county fair brings locals together to celebrate their community and showcase their unique talents and traditions. The 2013 Quad States Convention is our opportunity for bankers from South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana and Wyoming to come together to celebrate and share their traditions, hometown banking values, and spirit of serving their customers.

The convention will offer nationally-acclaimed speakers, great networking opportunities and timely information on issues of importance to the banking industry. Also, plan to have some fun as you experience some of the beautiful and exciting attractions that Rapid City and the Black Hills have to offer.

Our banks are “Banking on America” every day as they work hard to serve and support their customers, their local businesses and their communities. We are “Banking on America” and hope you are too!
