2024 CCBN Annual Top Banker Meeting

2024 CCBN Annual Top Banker Meeting

Tuesday, October 29, 2024 to Thursday, October 31, 2024

Event Details

A New Agenda for 2024!

This year’s Annual Top Banker Meeting is packed with actionable insights and practical takeaways on some of the most important topics in community banking you won't want to miss. But an annual meeting is about more than business, it’s about celebrating with friends and colleagues.

Each year we take you to a great location, and this year may be the best yet! The Carmel Valley Ranch is a resort oasis in Central California’s wine country, just a short drive from Monterey and Carmel-By-The-Sea. This 500-acre property is home to a wide variety of exciting activities, great cuisine, championship golf, a spa, and even an on-site creamery.

We’ve created a new agenda for 2024 that includes plenty of time to “Play Your Way” with some activities we’ve picked out, like a Guided Off-Road Excursion or an Outdoor Photography Workshop. And when you’re back in the meeting room your spouse/guests can continue the fun by joining our wine and food tour in Carmel-By-The-Sea.

We are also kicking off this year’s celebration with “Pinot & Pizza” featuring the resort’s own Pinot and pizza baked in a giant outdoor oven on our patio. And as those of you who attended last year’s event know, we closed with Tequila and this year it’s a Whiskey Tasting paired with great local snacks.
