Bank commits $1M to Glencoe Regional health initiative

Security Bank & Trust Company has committed a $1 million lead gift to Glencoe Regional Health’s Center for Healing as part of its Local Return Initiative. The project, now underway, includes two additions to meet growing demand for advanced clinical services and help Glencoe-area residents access essential services and specialty care without traveling long distances. A fourth-generation, family-run bank with 21 locations, Security Bank & Trust Company emphasizes people, relationships and community. The bank credits that philosophy with contributing to its success, noting that when communities grow, the bank grows, too. Launched last year, the Local Return Initiative formalizes the bank’s longstanding commitment to giving back to the communities it serves. The $1 million gift, to be paid over the next five years, reflects a longstanding partnership between the organizations. It is the largest gift the Glencoe Regional Health Foundation has received from a business. “This investment directly impacts our customers and allows them to stay local for care and for healing. Glencoe Regional Health is a cornerstone of our community, providing 24/7 access to healthcare, supporting needs beyond the hospital walls, and serving as an economic engine for the Glencoe area,” said Gale Hoese, Security Bank & Trust Company

Traditional German Fare Has Filled The Tables At This 1930s-Era Tavern In New Ulm, Minnesota, For Generations

Ribs slathered in a house sauce so popular that people can buy it by the bottle to take home. That alone made me sit up and pay attention. Then I learned the ribs share a menu with schnitzel, spaetzle, red cabbage, and something called sauerkraut balls. The setting is a tavern that dates back to the 1930s, filled with old-world decor.

Old bank vault doors still stand at both ends of this dining room. Instead of guarding cash, they now watch over plates of fresh pasta. One detail I find worth mentioning is the name itself. It comes from an Italian word for a bank vault or cellar, which feels like a wink at the building’s past.
