Members from Key Bank s Rootstown branch located at 4111 State Route 44 in Rootstown, volunteered their services and joined members from the Rootstown Fire Department in landscaping the Township fire station. This project included weeding, mulching and the planting of flowers. All members involved were also pleased to enjoy some uncharacteristically nice weather on this day.</P> <p>Nationally this is this 21st anniversary of Key Bank s  Neighbors Make the Difference Day. Nationwide, nearly 8,000 Key Bank employees volunteered their community oriented services on this day. Key Bank appreciates the support and understanding of their customers who recognize why many of their branches closed early on that day.</p> <p>On behalf of the Citizens of Rootstown Township, the members of the Rootstown Fire Department would like to thank Key Bank and their members for helping beautify the cornerstone of our community.<p> <p>Photos of this and other service projects will be available on Key Bank s facebook page www.facebook.com/KeyBankCommunity and you can vote on your favorite.</P> </td> <td align="left" valign="center"> <font size="3" color="black"> <img src="kb2.jpg" height="244" width="326"> <img src="kb4.jpg" height="244" width="326"> </td> </tr> </table> <center> <table border="5" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="800"> <tr> <td align="left" valign="center"> <font size="3" color="black"> <p><b><u><center>Free Magnetic Refrigerator Pouch for Emergency Medical Information</center></u></b></p> <p><b>We are providing magnetic refrigerator pouches & Emergency Medical Information forms, FREE of charge to Rootstown residents.</p> <p>These pouches hold the necessary information which is needed by the paramedics during an EMS response.
