First Niagara Bank has signed on with Stafford
Motor Speedway to become the newest member of the SMS family of sponsors.
First Niagara will be the title sponsor of the track’s July 1st First
Niagara Independence Day Celebration, and they will also maintain a
billboard presence at the track.
“We think that Stafford Speedway represents one of the finest family
establishments in Connecticut,” said First Niagara Stafford Branch Manager
Jonathan Knight. “We want to reach out to the Stafford community and
reestablish a link between the bank and the community and we thought this
was a great step to take to support the community of Stafford.”
As of April 25th, First Niagara Financial Group, Inc., through its wholly
owned subsidiary, First Niagara Bank, N.A., has $30 billion in assets, 346
branches and $18 billion in deposits. First Niagara Bank, N.A. is a
multi-state community-oriented bank providing financial services to
individuals, families and businesses across Upstate New York, Pennsylvania,
Connecticut and Massachusetts.
“We are a full service financial organization, and take a customer-focused
approach to meeting consumers’ and businesses’ needs with personalized
financial solutions,” said Knight. “We believe in putting our capital to
work to support our communities and local economy, and all credit and
investment decisions are made locally.”
First Niagara recently merged with New Alliance Bank and all the former New
Alliance branches in Connecticut and Massachusetts were rebranded as First
Niagara branches. The Stafford First Niagara branch is located at 34 West
Stafford Road. Branch hours are from 9am-4pm Monday-Wednesday, 9am-6pm on
