Community Banker Optimism Reaches New High | CSBS csbs.org/newsroom/commu… #CommunityBanks

@JillCastilla @PhilBuffington @AmerBanker @CitizensEdmond @bankonroger Congratulations!

I’m honored to be named among American Banker’s 25 Most Powerful Women in Banking for 2025, my 12th consecutive year recognized among these lists.   Most banks measure their power in the size of their assets, but around here, it looks a little different. It’s the kind of power that comes from serving your neighbors, creating opportunity, and believing that a one-branch bank in Oklahoma can still move the needle.   At Citizens Bank of Edmond, that power shows up every day: in Heard on Hurd, where our community gathers for the largest monthly food truck and independent music festival in the US; in Vault 405, where entrepreneurs build what’s next; in RISE, our accelerator for local business owners; and in ROGER Bank, our digital bank designed to serve military families nationwide.   It’s the kind of power George Bailey would recognize. Rooted in service, not scale. I’m especially proud to share this recognition with my fellow community banker (and George Bailey clone), Julieann Thurlow of Reading Cooperative Bank, who exemplifies that same spirit of service and local impact in every way.   As we approach 125 years of Citizens Bank of Edmond, I’m endlessly proud of our team and thankful to American Banker for celebrating the outsized impact community banks continue to make. Congratulations to this year’s awardees who continue making big impacts across our industry.   #MPWIB

@DevinBiery Hah--awww

@Pirates Can’t believe we lost. 👀

Final.

Shout out to #DukesMayo, @Lowes @JackDaniels_US and all the others for sponsoring #ConcertforCarolina! This is EPIC! Even just watching it from home.

@AmazonHelp @OGMoses1 That’s great but this is the same response you spewed to everyone last year every single game. It’s not an “us” problem. It’s a “you” problem @AmazonHelp @Amazon @NFL

The terrible streaming quality of #TNF on @Amazon prime reflects badly on you @NFL. A pox on both your houses!

Having NFL games on Amazon Prime was one of the worst decisions that the NFL has ever made. It's absolutely unwatchable with audio dropouts and glitching. No other streaming service has this issue. YouTube TV works like clockwork.

@NFL @nyjets @NFL, your video must be from @NFLPlus. Our video stream on @Amazon Prime is so bad we’re gonna stop watching. We pay a fortune for NFL on @YouTube and this is the best you can do through Amazon? It’s a terrible product. #NEvsNYJ

Will McDonald IV leads the way on another @Nyjets sack. #JetUp #NEvsNYJ on Prime Video Also streaming on #NFLPlus

@AdvanceAuto Shout out to Christian A at your Huntersville, NC, store for teaching me how to replace my rear windshield wiper when I couldn’t get it on my own. Thank you! 👏👏👏🎉🎉👏

@JoeBrunoWSOC9 We’re not doomed to 40 more years of a four lane general highway (I-77) in one of the most heavily traveled parts of the state because the locals and states sold us out for a toll road?

Inbox: On Thursday, US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will travel to Charlotte, NC to share a major infrastructure announcement made possible by President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

Dave Koch, Abrigo notes that we can’t expect potential interest rate cuts to drive a turnaround on NIM, deposit costs. #AOBA24

I wish the @MorganStateU choir would do the national anthem for every big @NFL game. They KILLED it! (This pic is from their website)

@AtGreyskull @amazon @NFL This post is life.

Hey @amazon can you move the bunny ears on the TV??? It looks like I’am watching the moon landing when the game is on….. commercials are super clear so it’s possible if you care about it. @NFL can you find another way to bring your product to fans? This poor quality is awful

@Rockies Shout out to Jeffrey B in your ballpark ticket office. 👏👏👏He helped ensure I got refunded when our rainout game was moved to a date we couldn’t attend. 🎉 Excellent #CustomerService 🎉 and much appreciated after several rounds dealing with Ticketmaster’s chat service.

@AmazonHelp @pitcherscircle Like anyone wants to do this when they’re watching a game.
