About Us
The true definition of local banking.
In the Beginning....
In June of 1972, an idea originated when a group of eleven local businessmen got together to discuss the possibility of opening a bank to service the needs of our local community. The group’s goal was to have a bank that met the community needs as well as being truly community owned.
Approval was granted by the State Banking Department and FDIC insurance was obtained in August of 1976 to form the First Bank of Snook. The stock was then issued at $25 per share giving the bank a total capital of $500,000 on opening day. In 1996, a new building was built to support the increasing number of employees needed during this growing time period. A Loan Production Office was established in College Station in the fall of 1998, which soon became a full service branch in January 1999. In January of 2006 we opened our new branch in College Station located at 625 University Drive East.
First Bank of Snook provides our community with many different services. Our lending services are located in College Station, providing customers with consumer, new construction, commercial and conventional mortgage loans. We also provide competitive checking, savings, Certificates of Deposits, IRA’s, Money Market Accounts. The bank also offers Online Banking with Bill Pay options and MasterCard check cards to consumer customers.
