LIBERTY, Ill. — The Adams County Bicentennial Commission has announced that Liberty Bank has come aboard as a premier sponsor for the upcoming Bicentennial celebration in 2025.
“We are deeply grateful to have Liberty Bank join us as a premier sponsor for the Adams County Bicentennial,” said Chuck Scholz, Chair of the Bicentennial Commission. “Their generous support is an integral part of celebrating 200 years of Adams County’s history and achievements. We also appreciate Mark’s efforts as a member of our Bicentennial Commission as he will help us make sure we are celebrating every corner of Adams County throughout our year of festivities.”
Liberty Bank President and Chairman of the Board Mark Field presented the bank’s $20,000 to the committee last week.
“From our humble beginnings in one small facility in the rural Adams County town of Liberty to now serving five communities throughout Adams County and one in Pike County, Liberty Bank remains committed to the residents, farmers and businesses of this area and this area only.” Field said. “This Bicentennial celebration is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pay tribute to our ancestors who laid the groundwork for us to be so successful today, and to also look forward to the next 200 years of progress and prosperity for the awesome people of Adams County.”
The Adams County Bicentennial celebrations will feature a year-long series of events and activities honoring the county’s history, culture, and achievements. For more information on how to get involved or attend events, visit www.adamsco200.org.
Tracing its roots back to 1903, Liberty Bank became an integral part of the community, starting its operations on the first floor of the Masonic Hall in Liberty, which still stands today. Its Board members were dedicated to the notion that local folks would be best served by a local bank where all of the decisions and every penny of its resources would all stay right here at home, meeting the needs and funding the dreams of neighbors and friends throughout the community.
Liberty Bank exemplifies Adams County’s tradition of financial integrity, security, and leadership.
