Area Residents Win Gift Certificates for New Canaan Businesses

First County Bank’s recent house literally was a gift to four lucky area residents.

The open house held in late October at the New Canaan branch gave residents the opportunity to meet its team of community bankers. During the Open House, First County Bank executive management, Rey Giallongo, chairman and CEO, and Robert Granata, president and COO, were available to meet New Canaan branch visitors as were First County Advisors, the bank’s wealth management division.

The Open House featured a drawing to win one of four $100 gift certificates redeemable at participating New Canaan Chamber of Commerce local merchants. Aitza Cabrera, New Canaan branch manager, presented $100 New Canaan Chamber of Commerce gift certificates to the four Open House drawing winners: Chris Tensen, Antionette Chirinian, Karen Evans and Jacqueline Pettibone.
