Community Bank of the Chesapeake will host a cash mob twice a month. The date, time and place will be announced at least a week in advance, encouraging the public to join.
Community Bank’s first Community Cash Mob will take place on Saturday, August 19, from 9 – 11 am at Charles Street Bakery in La Plata, Maryland, followed by Agora Coffee Shop in downtown Fredericksburg, Virginia on August 26 from 9 – 11 am.
