Fulton New Site Build

Red Bay, AL (February 22, 2022) – Community Spirit Bank announces plans to build a new banking facility in Fulton, MS. A prime site has been acquired at 100 Piercetown Road and the new building will be a full-service banking facility. Community Spirit arrived in Fulton in the Spring of 2022 and will continue to operate out of its full-service downtown location (located at 206 West Main Street) while construction is underway.

Brad M. Bolton, President/CEO/Senior Lender of Community Spirit Bank, stated, "Our investment underscores Community Spirit Bank's commitment to serving Fulton, and the surrounding areas, and providing an experience that goes beyond the transaction. We have assembled a dynamic team that continues to grow and deliver the personal attention, genuine hospitality, and local banking expertise we have focused on for the last 116 years. As a 58% employee-owned institution, our team is dedicated to going the extra mile – fostering lasting relationships and contributing to the prosperity of our communities as we strive to remain independent to serve our next generation of customers."

"The Community Spirit Bank Board of Directors approved architectural plans at the January 31, 2024, meeting", says Bolton, "with a projected operational timeline by the end of 2024. We have partnered with Eclipse Brand Builders to design a new branch embodying our customer-centric approach while focusing on personalized services tailored to our customer’s unique needs. The Atlanta-based firm will work closely with local subcontractors to bring the new branch to life."

Tony Green, one of the Fulton area's most recognized names in banking, continues to lead as Vice President and Business Development Officer, welcomes existing customers and the entire community to come and experience the Community Spirit difference of exceptional customer service.

Ashley Day, Universal Banker and Customer Service Representative, brings an experienced resume and a strong desire to help customers find the right fit for their products and services.

Finally, our current team is complimented by the addition of longtime banker, Tracy Heatherly, who brings fifteen years of experience and service to the region.

"At Community Spirit Bank, our customers have direct access to decision-makers, providing quick and efficient turnaround times," says Green. "I am excited to make a permanent mark in Fulton with our new building and help expand our footprint further into the Northeast Mississippi communities we all enjoy being a part of. The new branch will offer convenience and cutting-edge digital solutions, ensuring a seamless and accessible banking experience. In the meantime, I welcome the opportunity to serve you from our downtown location."

Bolton stated, "We are eager to construct this new facility and build lasting connections by providing banking services with a personal touch and staying committed to helping shape bright financial futures. This commitment to our customers has always focused on being accessible, responsive, and accountable. We invite this community to look at how we can serve you. Complete banking services are available downtown at 206 W. Main Street, Fulton. Reach out to us via cell, email, or visit us in person."
