Seymour at the Altare della Patria in Rome.

Break out the cake and party favors — next Wednesday, April 22, North Shore Bank mascot Seymour Savings turns 20!

Yes, though he doesn’t look a day past 12, everyone’s favorite seagull was born on Earth Day in the year 2000. April, of course, is also National Teach Children to Save Month. And a perfect way to teach kids to save is setting up a Seymour Savings account.

Seymour Savings accounts earn interest at the same rate as a regular savings account and require no minimum balance or monthly fee for account holders under 21. Plus, savers get a prize each time they make a deposit! You can find out more here.

In his time at North Shore Bank, Seymour has been fortunate enough to travel all over the world with colleagues. Check out more photos of his trip to Italy with deposit services manager Natalie Canadeo, a visit to Peru, and deposit operations rep Mila Larson’s wedding in Hawaii.
