“Identity theft and fraud prevention are hot-button issues in today’s world and hosting these free shred days helps minimize the risks and allows community members to safely dispose of sensitive documents,” said Carol Schmitz, senior vice president of community banking. “Plus, the month after the tax filing deadline, and during spring, seems like the ideal time to year to organize documents and shred those that are no longer needed. We hope plenty of people take advantage of these opportunities.”
