A sincere
welcome to First Star Bank. First Star was originally
chartered in 1893 as the Bethlehem Building & Loan
Association. Over the years, there were mergers with the Citizens
Building & Loan, West Bethlehem Building & Loan and the Bath
Savings & Loan Association to form the Greater Bethlehem Savings and
Loan Association. We became a public company in 1987 and have
since grown four-fold. To commemorate our 100th Anniversary in
1993, we changed our name to First Star Bank, with office
throughout the Lehigh Valley.
The bank is owned by nearly 300
stockholders primarily from the Lehigh Valley area.
As a community institution, I believe
that you will find our people just a little more friendly, and our
service just a little more timely, than our competition.
Further, after a quick look at our
product line, you will find a surprising difference in our rate and fee
structure. Relax and enjoy a discussion about your entire
financial picture with one of our bankers. I believe that you will
find the experience pleasant and rewarding.
Remember, as a local community member,
we are always here to help.
Thanks for the chance and let me know
what you think.
