Androscoggin Bank Announces “Free Shred Fridays”

Lewiston, MAINE – January 8, 2010 – Androscoggin Bank, a community leader in financial services, announced today that Maine residents can shred it up for free – at the bank and on Shawnee Peak.

Beginning January 8, Maine residents can shred their confidential documents for free on Fridays at any Androscoggin Bank location – and, in turn, get a $10 off lift ticket to shred the mountain later at Shawnee Peak.

“With tax season right around the corner, we are happy to provide local residents with the opportunity to get their personal documents in order and dispose of any unneeded confidential material in a free and secure manner,” said Christine Conrad, senior vice president of Androscoggin Bank.  “And we are pleased that Shawnee Peak has teamed up with us to add some fun to the mix.”

“Free Shred Fridays” will last through February 26, 2010 and can be taken advantage of at any one of Androscoggin Bank’s 13 locations, including: Livermore Falls, Jay, Brunswick, Portland, Lisbon Falls, Lewiston, Auburn, Turner, Gray, and South Paris. 

Each Shawnee Peak coupon is good for any full-day adult or full-day child lift ticket, and includes weekends.  The coupons expire April 16, 2010 and may not be redeemed for night skiing.
