First State Bank of the Florida Keys partnered with Florida Keys Commercial Fishermen’s Association to raise funds for local scholarships at the 7th Annual Seafood Festival.

First State Bank provided sponsorship funds, ATM service and a team of bank volunteers to assist with serving food, collecting money and selling raffle tickets at the popular local event.

“Many thanks to the First State Bank team for their hard work and support of our festival,” said Vicki Gale, Florida Keys Commercial Fishermen’s Association Seafood Festival Event Coordinator. “We appreciate the Bank’s ongoing support and generosity for the locals of the Keys.”

The Florida Keys Seafood Festival is designed to strengthen the local fishing industry by showcasing the tasty local seafood harvested by Keys fishermen. Florida Keys Commercial Fishermen’s Association also provides scholarships to college bound children of local commercial fishermen.
