BANKTEXAS STRIKES
GOLD IN BEST OF ARCHITECTURE AWARDS
|
The Independent Bankers Association of
Texas (IBAT) has awarded a Gold Medal to
BankTexas for its architectural design
of a new ‘Bank Store’ in Lindale.
Bank President and CEO Troy Robinson and
Vice President Charlie Rand accepted the
award at the 35th annual IBAT convention
in San Antonio during ceremonies
honoring winners in the Best of
Community Banking Awards presented each
year to community banks across the
state.
The Lindale Bank Store was built as a
model for future expansion of the
Quitman-based institution—“a branch that
redefines ‘bank’; delights customers and
engages passersby…a hub for the whole
community, where people can host a
meeting, surf the web, watch the news or
grab a cup of coffee.” |

in new loans in the first three months.
The Best of Community Banking Awards recognize IBAT
banks for outstanding service in the areas of
architectural design, community service, financial
literacy and marketing. IBAT represents more than
2,000 Texas-based banks and branches in 700
