Proud to support the next generation of East Texas agriculture! 🐄🐖🐐🐇🐓
This year at the East Texas Yamboree Livestock Show & Sale, First National Bank of East Texas purchased 12 animals raised by local FFA and 4-H exhibitors. Behind every one of these plaques is a young person who put in months of early mornings, hard work, and dedication.
Congratulations to all of the exhibitors and thank you to the families, ag teachers and volunteers who make the Yamboree such a special part of our community. We’re honored to invest in these students and their futures.

There’s a coin counter sitting in our bank that’s been around a long, long time.

And believe it or not, it still gets used.

Because for some folks, every penny matters. Always has.

Sure, most transactions these days happen with a card or a tap. Quick. Easy. No loose change to carry around.

But not everything has moved on.

There’s still value in slowing down, adding it up, and knowing exactly what you’ve got.

And whether it’s coins on a counter or numbers on a screen, our job stays the same.

To get it right. To be dependable. To be here when you need us.

And that’s something you can always count on.

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is OFFICIALLY open in Upshur County TODAY! ✨📚

This one is incredibly special to me. I’m so proud to have helped champion the effort to bring the Imagination Library to Upshur County. Bringing free books into the homes of children across our community has been a mission close to my heart, and seeing it officially come to life today is something I’m so grateful to be a part of.

Through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, children from birth to age five can receive a FREE, age-appropriate book delivered right to their mailbox every month. ❤️📖

Nolan Properties LLC is proud to support the first five months of this program, with one additional month given in honor of my grandmother, Virginia Young Goudarzi — a Gilmer ISD educator, making this mission even more meaningful to me.

The remaining months are made possible by generous community sponsors who stepped up to invest in Upshur County’s children: Gilmer ISD Foundation , Credit Union of Texas, Rotary Club of Gilmer and First National Bank of East Texas. We are so grateful for each of them!

✨ SIGN UP YOUR CHILD HERE: https://imaginationlibrary.com

I can’t wait to think about all the little bookshelves — and little readers — this program will help grow right here in Upshur County. ❤️📚
