A LEGACY OF SERVICE

I, Colleen Cullen Young, have a tremendous sense of pride as the third-generation President of the Bank of Cattaraugus. I am honored to continue the legacy of my father, Patrick J. Cullen, and grandfather, L. Edgar Cullen, by keeping the bank local and independent. The Bank of Cattaraugus remains committed to keeping local deposits available for local loans, fostering successful community reinvestment.

Looking back, it is remarkable how much we have accomplished, not only in terms of financial performance but also in our steadfast dedication to our history, stockholders, directors, employees, customers, and community.

The future is very bright for our little bank with a big presence, situated on the side hill on Main Street Cattaraugus in Western New York. We have an outstanding board of directors, management team, and staff to help ensure that we maintain positive relationships with our customers and community.  I continue to be grateful and inspired by our employees, who have demonstrated the utmost commitment to our customers and our purpose. I am proud to say Bank of Cattaraugus is ranked one of the strongest independent community banks in New York State.  

I will always be forward-looking and will continue to focus on every opportunity to serve our customers and community.

Sincerely,

President & CEO – Bank of Cattaraugus
