Bank of the Islands Joins in Planning 4th of July on Sanibel

Bank of the Islands President Robbie Roepstorff is pleased to recognize the Bank’s returning role as a partner in planning the 4th of July festivities on Sanibel. The Bank joins the City of Sanibel and The Bondurant Family Team at Kingfisher Real Estate in forming the planning committee for this once-in-a-lifetime celebration. Customer Service and Operations Manager Lathan Cram is representing Bank of the Islands on the committee.

“For many years, we have been honored to play a leading role in presenting the time-honored 4th of July Parade down Periwinkle Way and other Independence Day events,” said Roepstorff. “This year, the planned activities will take residents and visitors all the way from a pre-parade pancake breakfast to an unforgettable fireworks display. We encourage everyone to join in celebrating this very special moment in our country’s history throughout the day on Sanibel.”

Islanders and visitors are encouraged to stop by the Bank’s Sanibel Office to purchase an official 4th of July t-shirt for $20 each. While at the Bank, please enjoy our complimentary hot coffee, chilled water, and freshly baked cookies.
