💙💛 A stronger community starts with all of us.

We all have a role to play in making a difference. And when we come together, BIG things happen!

As we gear up for the 2nd Annual Bay State Bank Foundation Golf Classic, join our President & CEO Seth A. Pitts and Liz Parker Gagne of UMass Memorial Medical Center and Umass Memorial Children's Medical Center for a behind-the-scenes look at the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile and the incredible impact of community support on local children and families.

🎥 Take a look at what we're playing for!

Being Champions for Children is about more than a day on the golf course. It's about showing up, giving back, and investing in the community we all call home.

💛 You can be a Champion for Children, too! Join us in making a difference: https://birdease.com/34571/donate

Be More. Together.

🛡️ Think you can spot a scam?

Gallup and the Stop Scams Alliance estimate that $68 billion was lost to scammers last year.

That’s not a small number.

Scammers can use fake accounts, spoofed phone numbers and stolen information to make you think you're dealing with someone you know or trust.

Don’t trust it just because it looks real. Know what to look for.

This October, Bay State Bank is helping you become a Scam Slayer through the American Bankers Association’s campaign.

Learn the red flags and test your scam-spotting skills: https://aba.social/45wu2Cp

🛡️ Stop. Verify. Protect yourself.

Congratulations to the RICEMA team on an incredible Worcester Night Market this past week!

More than 10,000 people gathered on Franklin Street for an evening of art, food, music, local businesses, and shared experiences. The energy throughout the night reflected the creativity, diversity, and connection that make Worcester such a vibrant city.

Thank you to Boa, Holly, and the entire RICEMA team for the vision and hard work behind this remarkable celebration. Through events like the Night Market, RICEMA creates space for people to share their cultures, support local creators, and experience the richness of Worcester’s many communities.

We believe culture brings people together, and Worcester is stronger when we create opportunities to celebrate one another and the stories that make our city special. The Worcester Night Market was a wonderful reminder of what we can build when we come together.

Be More. Together.

Downtown Worcester was swinging last Friday night! 🎷

Jazz+ Live featuring The Love Dogs brought the sound, the crowd brought the energy and gave us one more reason to spend a summer night downtown.

We love seeing events like this bring people into the heart of our city and celebrating our neighbors at 90.5 WICN Public Radio and The Hanover Theatre and Conservatory for the Performing Arts, who continue to make Downtown Worcester such a vibrant place to be. We’re also lucky to have our own Joe Tonelli and Bernard Gagnon serving on WICN’s Board and helping champion live music and public radio in our community.

More music. More nights out. More reasons to love Downtown Worcester. 🎶

What a way to kick off the back-to-school season! 🎒💙

We had so much fun at the Friendly House, MA Block Party alongside our friends at the Worcester Railers HC! Benjie and Trax even showed off their best dance moves. 🐶🏒🕺

From backpacks and haircuts to games, crafts, snacks and more, the Block Party brings families together for an end-of-summer celebration while helping local kids start the school year strong.

Thank you to the Friendly House for all you do year-round to support children and families throughout our community. We loved being part of such a fun afternoon! 💛

51 years of a truly special Worcester tradition. ⛳️💙

For more than five decades, members of Worcester Country Club have come together to host the Lori Lajoie Charity Golf Tournament, a one-of-a-kind event benefiting Seven Hills Foundation and its work supporting individuals with disabilities and their families.

Bay State Bank President & CEO Seth A. Pitts, a member of the Seven Hills Foundation Board of Directors, joined fellow supporters on the course as this incredible Worcester tradition marked its 51st year.

Here’s to the volunteers, golfers, and supporters who continue Lori’s legacy year after year while making a meaningful difference for individuals and families throughout our community.

Great music, great company, and lots of food... lots and lots of food! 🍕🍝

Bay State Bank had a wonderful time celebrating with Our Lady of Mt. Carmel & Loreto Parish at The Original Italian Festival. And we have to admit, there’s something pretty special about Worcester’s original Italian festival and Worcester’s original Bank coming together. 💙💛

That’s a Worcester tradition we can get behind! 🇮🇹

Already counting down to next year. 🎉
