Lakestone Bank & Trust has been part of the Yale community for over 20 years. Although the name has changed over time, the investment in the Yale community has remained constant. The Yale Branch was in need of some updates, and after a complete renovation of the bank, they held the grand reopening on December 2.
According to spokesperson Sarah Lawrence, the bank has all new furniture, carpet, artwork, and signage. She told us that the bank prides itself on being a community bank that provides the best service to its customers, and reinvests in local communities. After a few months of working around the construction, both employees and customers were happy to see this cornerstone of commerce in the city fully open and renovated.
The Yale Branch Manager, Stephanie Schaefer, chose Yale Public Schools as the beneficiary of the branch’s monetary gift in celebration of their Grand Reopening. They presented the gift to school administrators during the celebration, as they are a significant member of the Yale community. Lakestone Bank & Trust is headquartered in Lapeer and has fifteen locations.
