Support our major sponsor West Beach Community Bank and start up a kids account.

/0 Comments/in , , /by
As a Surf Club we should be able to relate to what it means to support our Community. We bank with West Beach Community Bank who are also major Sponsors for our Club and they know exactly what it means to support the community too, but the only way they can continue to put back into the community is if the community support them.
We have a fantastic opportunity to help.
For every dollar that West Beach Community Bank makes in profit they distribute to others who need a helping hand.
So to help us to help them lets get behind them. They have offered us the ability to start up kids accounts and are even throwing in $20 to get the ball rolling.
So heres how it works ,they are coming to support us at our Semafest Community Event on the 1st Nov , simply bring an original birth certificate if under 7, a birth certificate & medicare card for 7 – 12 and a birth certificate, medicare card & parents drivers license for over 12s & thats it…. all sorted.
Its not just the kids they cater for either they offer everyday accounts, home loans, business banking, Insurance, Superannuation, Credit cards all at very competitive rates a FULL SERVICE BANK.
Any Bendigo bank can take your deposits & withdrawals.
Its that simple
So come on lets get behind West Beach Community Bank.
