Bank of Canton's Good Cheerlings Bring Holiday Magic to Area Residents

December 2006- Bank of Canton's "Good Cheerlings" are here again this year to bring holiday magic to area residents. For four weeks, the "Good Cheerlings" are offering the public the chance to win from $100 to $500 in Bank of Canton's weekly giveaway.

The "Good Cheerlings" Holiday Cash Giveaway has been an annual promotion at Bank of Canton for more than a decade. Random drawings will be held every Friday at all six Bank of Canton locations during the promotion, including: Quincy, Randolph, Brookline, Hyannis, the Canton Main Office at 557 Washington Street, and the Canton Route 138 branch. There will be one winner chosen at each of the branches to receive $100 cash on December 8th and $250 on December 15th. The promotion will end with a bang on December 22nd, as two lucky winners will get the biggest gift of all: $500! The grand-prize winners will be drawn from all of the branch entries throughout the promotion. There will be a festive holiday celebration December 22nd beginning at 9:00 a.m., when Santa arrives in his sleigh at the Canton Main Office, located at 557 Washington Street.
