Peach State Bank & Trust President Ron Quinn was elected board chairman of the Community Bankers Association of Georgia at the association’s recent annual convention in Amelia Island, Fla. 

Quinn is a longtime member of the CBA Board, which selects board members from seven divisions across the state. He is the first chairman from Hall County in the 50-year history of the CBA.

As president of Gainesville’s only locally owned community bank, Quinn said he will gain a lot of insights in his new board role as he meets with his professional peers across the state. 

“This is such an honor to me because I believe so strongly in community banking and its vital economic role with communities and customers.”
