About Raccoon Valley Bank

A Letter from the President

Welcome to Raccoon Valley Bank! Perhaps you have come to our website to learn more about our organization or maybe you are considering joining our team.

Raccoon Valley Bank is a locally owned community-focused bank and has been owned by the Garst family since 1968. We are honored to have served the Central Iowa community since our founding in 1914. As President & Chief Executive Officer of Raccoon Valley Bank, I am privileged to lead a team dedicated to providing exceptional service and support to the Central Iowa community.  

At Raccoon Valley Bank, we believe in the power of relationships. Our mission has always been to provide personalized banking solutions that cater to our customers’ unique needs, helping them achieve their financial goals and build a secure future. We pride ourselves on being more than just a bank; we are your neighbors, friends, and partners in success.

We are committed to investing in the Central Iowa community. Each year we provide significant financial support to our communities through charitable donations and special programs. Perhaps more important, our bankers are encouraged to contribute their time and expertise, spending hundreds of hours serving as volunteers, board members, and leaders of local organizations.

Thank you for being a part of our community and for choosing or considering Raccoon Valley Bank as your financial partner. If you have any questions or would like additional information about our bank, please call or stop by to see us. We’ll be happy to assist you!

Sincerely,

Terry D. Nielsen
