Bank with us to get local legendary customer service, award-winning Bendigo Bank products and competitive rates. In May 2007 confidential survey forms were distributed as well as face-to-face interviews by an independent consultant to gauge the viability of the project. A great response was obtained from the community with indicative support sufficient to encourage the Steering Committee to move t

o the next stage in the process. The results of the feasibility study were presented to the committee at a meeting held on 26 July 2007 and it was unanimously voted to proceed towards the establishment of the Apollo Bay & District Community Bank branch. Shares in the Apollo Bay & District Community Enterprises Limited were offered to the public and the target reached. The branch was officially opened Monday 5 May 2008 with official speeches and entertainment by the local community choir and the primary school choir, followed by a sausage sizzle lunch and refreshments

To date we have given almost $244,500 in community sponsorships with our major recipients including:

Apollo Bay Surf Life Saving Club, Apollo Bay Cricket Club, Apollo Bay Boardriders Club, Apollo Bay Saling Club, Apollo Bay Aquatic Centre, Apollo Bay Web Design, Apollo Bay Community Garden, Apollo Bay Ocean Rescue, Apollo Bay Golf Club, Apollo Bay Football Club, Apollo Bay P-12 College, Lions Club, plus over $15,000 given out in smaller grants.

May begins tomorrow, and that only means one thing, the Great Ocean Road Running Festival is almost here!

Every year, thousands of runners from across Australia and around the world make their way to Lorne and Apollo Bay for one of the country's most breathtaking running events, and we couldn't be prouder to call this home.

A huge congratulations to the event organisers for once again bringing this incredible festival to our region. A weekend of running, music, wellness and community, it's the kind of event that reminds us why people fall in love with this place. And the flow-on impact for our local towns and businesses? Priceless.
Whether you're lacing up or cheering from the sidelines, we hope to see you out there soaking it all in. β˜€οΈ
