Did you know that Columbus was not the first person to discover America?

While he still sailed the ocean blue in 1492, it was Leif Eriksson who landed in North America first around 1000 AD. As Columbus Day became a national holiday in 1934, it became one of the most common misconceptions surrounding the holiday’s origin.

As a friendly reminder, our offices will be closed on Monday, October 12th in observance of the holiday. Our operations will return to normal on Tuesday, October 13th.

Put away the white clothes for Labor Day!

In the late 19th century, wearing white clothes after Labor Day was seen as unfashionable with the end of summer. While we enjoy living in the state of endless summer, we hope you can celebrate with some rest and relaxation!

In honor of Labor Day, our offices will be closed on Monday, September 7th. We will resume normal operations on Tuesday, September 8th.

Polk County is known for its many organizations that empower the community.

We had the opportunity to visit the teams at Lakeland Volunteers in Medicine, Alliance for Independence, and Volunteers in Service to the Elderly this week, and we are encouraged by how each organization supports underserved individuals. Their impact goes beyond what they provide: it helps support our community for the better.

We enjoyed being able to learn more about what these organizations do every day as part of the United Way agency tours, and we can’t wait to see what they do next!

Skimming costs financial institutions and consumers more than $1 billion each year.

But what is skimming? According to the FBI, skimming is defined as the collection of personal data from devices installed in or on ATM’s or similar devices, like point-of-sale machines or fuel pumps. Small business owners know how important it is to keep their accounts protected from every angle while they are on-the-go.

At Bank of Central Florida, we focus on educating clients about fraud as one of the top priorities.

Read our most recent blog to learn more about how to protect your accounts from skimming fraud.
