Eagle Bank is a true community bank with continuous local ownership for over 100 years in Glenwood, Minnesota. In 1980, we opened a banking office in Villard, MN., which had been without a bank since 1925.
In 1995, we acquired a bank in Elbow Lake, MN. and the bank in Wendell, Minn. which are located in adjacent Grant County. Local owners/operators are deeply involved in the social and economic growth of their communities. We are known for our quick response and strong interest in community projects and interests.
The Bank of Elbow Lake was established in 1887 and has served the county seat community of Elbow Lake and the surrounding rich agricultural area since that time. In order to take advantage of opportunities provided by new computer technologies, the bank sold on January 5, 1995 to the Pope County State Bank of Glenwood and has enjoyed good business growth. The following October, the bank's name was changed to Eagle Bank to better reflect the enlarged geographic area. Over many years of changes, generations and growth, one thing that has not changed is the bank's friendliness and concern in dealing with and serving the public. This will always remain our goal.
