It’s been a longstanding tradition among United Prairie Banks to host summer picnics for their customers. The year 2009 is no exception for UPB’s “Customer Appreciation” events.
All customers are invited to come to their local United Prairie Bank’s event and have some free food and fun.
“These picnics are a ‘thank you’ to the people we are privileged to serve,” said Stuart Sneer, president of all the United Prairie Banks. “And, they give our staff people a chance to talk with our customers on a more relaxed, fun basis.”

Good news for depositors! On May 20, 2009, President Barack Obama signed the Helping Families Save Their Homes Act, which extends the temporary increase in the standard maximum deposit insurance amount (SMDIA) to $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2013.
Back in 2008, FDIC deposit insurance was temporarily increased from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2009.
The new extension of the temporary $250,000 coverage limit became effective immediately upon the President's signature. The legislation provides that the SMDIA will return to $100,000 on January 1, 2014. (FDIC FIL-22-2009)

Coverage under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program is in addition to and separate from the coverage available under the FDIC’s general deposit insurance rules.
