PICTURES: Poppy Bank Ribbon-Cutting event

Congratulations to Poppy Bank’s El Camino Real at Murchison Drive location for a lively ribbon-cutting event, hosted by the Millbrae Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, April 1, 2026 at 12:00 noon. 

Chamber members, city & community leaders and friends all gathered on a slightly misty afternoon to show their support and well wishes to the newest bank in Millbrae.  Chamber CEO/President Jamie Monozon greeted all who arrived, and the Poppy Bank crew prepared a wonderful charcuterie spread, cupcake table and a raffle prize basket making all the attendees feel welcome.

Orange was the theme of the day.  It was mentioned that Poppy Bank, a Santa Rosa founded organization, is named after the orange “California Poppy” flower symbolizing the state and its residents while “offering bigger bank services with small bank personal attention”.

Thanks to all who helped to put this event together, and all who attended, making it all a great success!  From Millbrae Chamber past board chair Paul Larson.
