Premier Bank recently donated a check to the Defiance Development and Visitors Bureau for $2,500. The funds will be used to sponsor the City of Defiance’s bicentennial celebration.

“The City of Defiance is celebrating a major milestone in 2023 – its Bicentennial! This year will be spent remembering our history, honoring our present and envisioning our future. The Bicentennial committee has been discussing ideas on events, activities and projects to promote and embrace the 200th Anniversary of the City of Defiance,” explained Kirstie Mack, Bicentennial Committee Co-Chair, Defiance Development and Visitors Bureau. “Because of the generosity of our community partners like Premier Bank, the community will have opportunities to attend community events and festivals, recall historical events and more throughout all of 2023!”

“We’re very proud to be able to support the Defiance Development and Visitors Bureau and the City of Defiance’s bicentennial celebration to showcase the City of Defiance and educate residents and others on the unique history of the city,” said Trish Gelsomino, Foundation Giving Coordinator, Premier Bank. “Together we can spread kindness and make the Defiance community stronger!”
