Jennifer Mounts, Pelican State Credit Union Branch Manager
“It is a place where people still know you by name and really mean it when they ask, ‘How are you today?’ A place where children can still ride their bikes to schools, which by the way, are the BEST in the state. For my family and I, I can’t think of anywhere else I would rather live and raise my children. It’s a warm city full of promise, potential and opportunity.”
Preston L. Kennedy, Banker
“Zachary is optimistic; it dreams big. It is filled with ‘can do’ people. It works together. Zachary gets things done.”

“I believe Zachary is special because of the people. I can walk into any store, big or small, and someone knows my name. They always smile and ask how my family is. To me, that’s special.”

“Zachary is one of the few cities where the community is so significant. Its gracious and welcoming citizens always strive to help one another in whatever ways they can.

I think that is the driving force that makes Zachary so special.”
