John Coburn – a longtime Manteca banker – will serve as the first manager of the new Manteca branch of the Oak Valley Community Bank set to open in May.
After serving the banking needs of farmers, merchants and farmers for the last 40 years, Coburn holds the title of senior vice president in the Oak Valley family of banks in San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties. The Manteca branch is the fourth Oak Valley branch to open in San Joaquin County.
“This location is yet another extension of our commitment to provide the utmost customer care and convenience for Central Valley families and businesses,” said Ron Martin, chief executive officer.
Coburn said he had been set to retire from his managerial position at Manteca’s Bank of Stockton branch at the end of January. He accepted the Oak Valley offer in December making the actual change at the first of the year.
Coburn had been with Bank of Stockton just over 30 years and previously served as manager of Mid-Cal Bank in Manteca for nearly nine years. He had also worked for Wells Fargo for eight years and for a bank in Massachusetts for his first year in the business world.
“I’ve only been with them for three weeks now,” Coburn said. “They are good people with compassion.”
Coburn said that Oak Valley is big on community involvement and he can now return to serving the community in the many activities he just didn’t have time to be as involved as he wanted in recent years.
Among the service groups where he has left his footprint over the years include serving on the executive board of the Boy Scouts of America, the board of directors for Agape Village Foster Care Agency, the Manteca/Lathrop Boys and Girls Club, Give Every Child a Chance and HOPE Family Shelter. Coburn is also a member of the Manteca Rotary, the Manteca Chamber of Commerce and is a past recipient of the chamber president’s outstanding citizen award.
“John is a great addition to the bank,” said Dave Harvey, executive vice president of commercial banking. “He is very well known and respected in the community. He shares our dedication and commitment to providing Central Valley families and businesses with a premier banking experience.”
The Manteca branch will offer a full line of personal and commercial services, a traditional walk-up ATM, night deposit service and safe deposit box availability. Hours Monday through Thursday will be from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. – Friday from 9 to 6. Saturday hours are possible at a later date.
Oak Valley Community Bank was established in 1991 and now has 12 locations. They are in Oakdale, Sonora, Turlock, Stockton, Patterson, Ripon, Escalon with two branches in Modesto and three branches in their Eastern Sierra Division. Those include Bridgeport, Mammoth Lakes and Bishop.
The bank has announced plans to open another Modesto location at the corner of McHenry and Sylvan avenues bringing the total number of locations to 14.
Coburn and his wife Penny have called Escalon their home for the last 20 years after moving from Manteca where they resided for some 15 years. The couple has five adult children and six grandchildren. Golf and family top the list for his off hours.
