Juan Gutierrez as Seymour
Along with Fox 6, we sponsored Family Free Day at the Milwaukee County Zoo on April 6.
We held an educational scavenger hunt for kids and offered games including an “I Spy” money game and the Scoop & Save game. We also talked to zoo visitors about North Shore Bank’s products and services.
“It was so great to have so many of our staff come out and represent the bank,” says Marketing Communications Manager Kate Knox. “I’m really grateful we have so many caring, supportive people on our team, who are so happy to go out and talk and work with the people in our community.”

This is a fantastic community event that North Shore Bank does at the Zoo and a great way to get our name out there and to teach kids about saving money. I have worked this event a couple of times now and the people are so gratful to us for giving them a free day at the zoo to spend with their families. The kids just love our scoop and save game and the seymour tattoos. I must have applied 2,000 tattoos to little hands and arms that day!
Loved it!
