To say we are "thrilled" with these donations would be quite an understatement.

Quoin Financial bank, in partnership with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, is pleased to announce a $350,000 contribution to the Hand County Health, Wellness, & Community Foundation for the construction of a new swimming pool in Miller, South Dakota. This investment reflects our ongoing commitment to strengthening community health, supporting local families, enhancing the quality of life in our region.

In addition, Quoin Financial Bank owners, Steve and Mary Lindholm donated $20,000 personally.

THANK YOU!!!!

We hope everyone had a GREAT time at the Beach Ball! We raised just shy of $35,000 towards the pool!! 👏 👏 👏

Our Hawaiian Attire contest winners are as follows:

Individual: Travis Anderberg
It was that HATS that put him over the top!

Couple: Steve and Connie Schroeder
These two looked like they just stopped by on their way to a luau!

Group: The Jamie and Damon Brueggeman table
EVERY single person at this table, including matriarch Marlene, was dressed in their Hawaiian finest!

Congratulations to our winners!!! The crowd was decked out so it made for a difficult decision - one of the reasons it took so long to announce.. Thank you to everyone to embracing the theme of the night!
