"In our 104 years of service, Bank North has been known for excellent customer service. In fact, we have often said "In over a century of banking, everything has changed - except our service to the customer". It's that same commitment to service that drives us to continually develop and offer new services and products. Products like our Free Online Banking, Free TouchTone Banking and Overdraft Sweeps Protection. Services like our six ATM's located throughout Marinette County."

"Since we opened our doors in 1903 we've gone from pen and paper to mouse and PC. From simple home loans to home equity loans, lines of credit and credit cards. But as an independent, community bank, our focus has always been on our customer. So whether you need help with the home loan process, opening an IRA or establishing a business checking account, our friendly staff provides the very best in service. Let us help you get to where you want to be in your life . . . it's what we do."

Wausaukee State Bank opened its doors on January 1, 1903 prepared to service the community's banking needs. The door to the vault had not arrived but this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the new Wausaukee State Bank customers. The deposits jumped from $1,183 to $12,000 in the first three days of business. The vision and civic mindedness of Harlan P. Bird, President of the Bird and Wells Lumber Company, are credited with being prime forces in the organization of the Bank.

In 1933, the Wausaukee State Bank and the Pembine State Bank were consolidated and thus became the Pembine Wausaukee Bank. The Bank continued to thrive and deposits had reached $280,000 by 1940, and by 1944 the Bank had total assets of $1 million.

Continued economic growth of the mid-county area led to a decision to establish a branch office in Crivitz. In 1944, the Crivitz State Bank became a part of what is now Bank North. Continued growth of the Bank resulted in total assets of $1,700,000 by December of 1950. The present Crivitz Bank building was constructed in 1969, and in 1990 an extensive expansion and remodeling project was completed. From this downtown location, Bank North continues to serve the growing financial needs of the Crivitz community and its surrounding areas.

Many changes occurred as the bank grew. In 1983, a branch bank was established in Amberg to better serve the residents of that community. And in 1990, the Bank merged with the Citizens Bank of Goodman, which had been established in 1925 and operated independently until the merger.

In 1991, the Bank's name was changed to Bank North to more accurately reflect the large mid-county area and the five communities that are served.

In 2006 we opened another branch office located inside the Piggly Wiggly Store in Crivitz. This newest branch office allows us to better serve our customers by offering them full-service banking seven days a week. We are very proud of being able to offer our customers and potential customers this service, as this is the only grocery store bank in the entire county that is not located in the city of Marinette.

"Over the years we have touched the lives of many people in the communities that we serve, and we continue to touch lives still today. We have not forgotten who we are or who the people are that we serve — you the customer. We are a full service, independent community bank. Come bank with us. "
