Past Events
Shred Day 2013
On Saturday, April 13 we held a Shred Day event at our Lake Jeanette location in Greensboro, in conjunction with our 13-year anniversary celebration. Many of our clients and neighbors joined us for free document shredding. We’re happy to help our community take steps towards identity theft protection. Please watch for future shred day events.
Shred Day 2012
On October 13th we held our annual Shred Day event at our New Garden Crossing location. Many clients and neighbors joined us for free document shredding, compliments of Shred Depot, and safely disposed of their old documents. By shredding sensitive, personal or business documents they helped prevent identity theft while also clearing out valuable space.
The 20th Anniversary Women’s Only 5K Walk & Run
The Bank of Oak Ridge team joined in the fight against cancer, at the 20th Anniversary Women’s Only 5K Walk & Run, on Saturday, October 6th. There were 3,716 runners and walkers who combined brought in $118,711 for the Mammography Scholarship Fund. This will help provide free, life-saving mammograms and follow-up care for women who are uninsured or lack the financial means to pay for the screening.
2012 Summerfield Founders’ Day
Historians and townspeople love days like Summerfield Founders’ Day. It was a day of celebrating past, present and future. Bank of Oak Ridge joined in the festivities surrounding Summerfield Founders’ Day in May once again this year. We walked the parade route and threw out over 1,000 beach balls and lucky registrant Jason Long won the Char-Broil Commercial Infrared Grill.
Summerfield held its 16th celebration of Founders’ Day, and the town also marked a milestone…the 200th anniversary of when it changed names. The town was formerly called Bruce’s Crossing.
The event is held over two days and started Friday night with a concert, carnival rides and food. Saturday the event kicked off with the annual parade, and included live entertainment, food and pig races. The Summerfield Founders’ Day parade is the longest running parade in Guilford County.
2012 Oak Ridge Elementary PTA Carnival
“Thanks for being such a great sport. It was a memory maker for the children. As a parent & a PTA member I thank you!
Bank of Oak Ridge has been a tremendous supporter of our school. In this day and age, big business doesn’t give back to the community, your bank does. That goes a long way with our parents.”
