ESOP
After consulting with our Mission Statement,
Vision, Constants, and Values, I decided to focus
on values. The first value is "Independence"
which resonated with me as it relates to our
ESOP. Our financial performance over the years
highlights a very successful company, ripe for the
picking. We have hired and promoted the best
and brightest staff that allows us to continue to
be successful. All the other values also lend itself
to the ESOP. I am thankful for the peace of mind
for purposes of retirement in an environment
where the risk of losing this benefit through a
purchase doesn't exist.

Employee Owner since 2007
Being an employee owner means that I have
a more personal investment in my daily work,
as well as our brand and culture. It also means I
can trust in my teammates to do the same. We
have the opportunity to make Alpine Bank an
amazing place to work and to bank. Employee
ownership also guarantees our independence,
which is paramount in today's economy.
When visiting a small business, one can
usually tell who owns the business. They
carry themselves differently. They carry
the responsibility but also the pride of the
ownership. They go the extra mile to be
sure the job is done well, and the customer's
expectations are exceeded. That is ownership.
That's Alpine Bank.
