Country Bank Staff Create Blankets for Hospitalized Children

WARE — Recently, the staff of Country Bank came together to support Baystate Children’s Hospital in Springfield. The Corporate Risk Department hosted a ‘blanket banquet’ and invited the entire bank staff to join them in creating ‘no-sew’ fleece blankets. To continue with the theme, the group also served a variety of comfort foods for all who helped with the project.

“We are so pleased with the response from all of our staff,” said Dawn Fleury, senior vice president and chief risk officer. “At the end of the event, we had 34 blankets to donate to the young patients at Baystate, who could use a little comfort at a very difficult time in their lives.”
