Blue Ridge Bank is celebrating 60 years of serving the citizens of Oconee County on June 15, 2017.

Since 1957, Blue Ridge Bank has maintained a 60 year history of focusing solely on Oconee County. Its staff members strive to deliver the best hometown bank experience by displaying excellent customer service and dedication to the community in which they are honored to serve.

Today, Blue Ridge Bank has grown to over 115 million in assets, operates at three locations in Oconee County with 27 employees, and holds a five star security rating by Bauer Financial.

“This is a major achievement for Blue Ridge Bank, stated Jess Neville, Board of Directors Chairman. “Since our start on Main Street in Walhalla to furthering our footprint in Oconee County, our team continues to go above and beyond the call of duty.  Our staff members truly care about each individual in the community and are excited for our continued growth.”

To celebrate this milestone, Blue Ridge Bank will have a 60 year celebration lunch at its Main Office in Walhalla (100 East Main Street) and Seneca Office (118 Bountyland Road) on June 15th from 11:30AM-2PM. The community is invited to enjoy BBQ, prizes and fellowship. The first 100 people receive a free Blue Ridge Bank gift.
