😁 On Monday, orthodontist Dr. Brian Duvernay and Practice Director Christine Heine joined us on Kajun 107.1 to share what sets Smile Doctors apart. They discussed orthodontic treatment options, who may benefit from treatment, when children should have their first evaluation, and how their technology supports remote care.

Thank you to the Smile Doctors team for joining us, sharing their expertise, and helping our community learn more about the path to a confident smile!

✂️🏦 A great turnout today as we celebrated Bonvenu Bank’s new Hammond branch with an official Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening!

A familiar bank with a new name, Bonvenu Bank was formerly Citizens Bank and rebranded two years ago. With 41 years of serving its communities, the bank continues that tradition at its new Hammond location.

Bonvenu Bank offers a full range of personal and business banking products and services, pairing convenient financial solutions with friendly service. From opening accounts and applying for loans to handling everyday transactions, their team is ready to help individuals and businesses meet their banking needs.

We are proud to have Bonvenu Bank as a Premier Investor of the Tangipahoa Chamber. Visit them at 1101 CM Fagan Drive in Hammond, and join us in congratulating their team on this exciting milestone!

The evening continued with introductions from candidates for U.S. Congress, Public Service Commission, Board of Elementary and Secondary Education, District Judge, City Court Marshal, Tangipahoa Parish School Board and Hammond City Council, followed by our featured forums with candidates for Hammond Mayor and 21st Judicial District Attorney.
