Danielle Ritz and Patty Muehl were among the employees helping a steady stream of visitors at Taste of Lake Country.

Our Pewaukee branch showed up for Taste of Lake Country on the town’s lakefront on July 29 and 30 and talked to some of the thousands of attendees about how North Shore Bank could help them.

The event, put on annually by Positively Pewaukee, featured over a dozen restaurants, live music, a fine-arts tent, and plein air painting by local artists. At our booth, we gave away North Shore Bank can koozies and had a spin-the-wheel game for kids and a drawing for families to win a ticket package to the Milwaukee County Zoo.

Local plein air artist Michelle Savas Thompson did a painting of the Pewaukee branch, which Positively Pewaukee director Elaine Kroening quickly offered to purchase as a gift for the bank. The painting is now on display in the branch’s lobby.

Employees who helped out at Taste of Lake Country include District Manager Cristen Baumann, Personal Banker Jewell Graham, Tellers Megan Kubichek and Erica Kuik, Pewaukee Branch Manager Patty Muehl, Universal Banker Taylor Pokrop, Teller Supervisor Danielle Ritz, and Sussex Branch Manager Candy Walecki.
