(Hopewell, NJ)—With a strong history of growth and a continuing commitment to Mercer County, Hopewell Valley Community Bank opens its newest office on the county line, celebrating with a community-wide Harvest Fest. The celebration and grand opening of the County Line branch will take place on Saturday, October 23, 2004, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 280 Rt. 31 in Hopewell, Township,N.J.

‘Harvest Fest’ is free and open to the public and will feature games, contests, activities and refreshments in the spirit of the fall season. Children in costume can walk away with a prize! The Costume Contest is open for children up to age 12 and will be held at 1 p.m. Costumes will be judged for ugliest, prettiest, most creative, best homemade, best store bought and best overall.

Children will be able to bob for apples, with the fastest in each group earning a $5 credit toward an account at Hopewell Valley Community Bank. There will also be a pumpkin carving contest and a castle moon bounce.

“It is important for us to reach out into the community,” said James Hyman, President Hopewell Valley Community Bank. “Events like Harvest Fest help us to get to know our customers. Customers are the backbone of our business, and the reason we’re able to expand to this new location.”
