One Community Bank Breaks Ground in Cottage Grove

(June 2023) – As a growing organization, One Community Bank recently announced a new bank location in the Cottage Grove community. The new bank will be located at 1565 Landmark Drive between Commerce Parkway and Limestone Pass.

On Thursday, April 27, One Community Bank held a groundbreaking ceremony to celebrate this exciting new phase of the project. Local community members as well as OCB colleagues, directors, and partners gathered for the ceremony at the location of the future bank. Attendees included: Village of Cottage Grove president and staff, leaders from the Cottage Grove Chamber of Commerce, and several of our partners from Ideal Builders, OPN Architects, and many of our subcontractor firms.

“One Community Bank believes in serving clients, supporting colleagues, and investing in our communities. Cottage Grove has a strong community presence, and our colleagues are excited to participate in events and support local businesses,” said Steve Peotter, President and CEO. “OCB has been fortunate to have worked closely with many Cottage Grove clients throughout the years. We are proud to bring OCB’s ‘Feel Good Banking’ to Cottage Grove.”

One Community Bank is working closely with Ideal Builders and OPN Architects on the new 6,000 square foot location at Landmark Drive.

“What we’ve seen in the communities that we’ve served with One Community Bank is they back up what they say,” said Tim Cleary, Executive Vice President of Ideal Builders. “They’ve been wonderful community participants to the schools, the business community, and to countless other non-profits. The Cottage Grove community is winning by having this employer here and I’m excited to see what they do here.”

“We are honored to be One Community Bank’s architect for the new Cottage Grove location, our third bank location together”, said Wesley Reynolds, Principal, OPN Architects. “Our long-time partnership is proof that OCB is committed to designing buildings that elevate the communities in which they live, work, and invest.”

One Community Bank – Cottage Grove will offer full-service banking capabilities to current and future clients in Cottage Grove and surrounding communities. The new location will include a drive-through lane with a teller window and a remote interactive teller machine (ITM). The ITM will be available extended hours. The location will have several office spaces and a conference room for colleagues to serve clients. It will also include a welcoming spacious lobby for clients to enjoy.

Online account opening capabilities enable anyone to open an account on OCB’s website today, instead of waiting until the new Cottage Grove location opens.

OCB – Cottage Grove is expected to open its doors in early 2024.

Mentoring Positives: Muriel’s Place Opening Empowers Disadvantaged Youth to Further a Good Cause That Tastes Great

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MAY 11, 2023
CONTACT: WILL GREEN @ 608-345-1064
will.g@mentoringpositives.org

Madison-based Mentoring Positives is set to open Muriel’s Place, a commercial kitchen where disadvantaged teens gain confidence, develop job skills and build relationships – all while making, marketing and selling Off The Block™ homemade pizza and salsa.

With operations now under one roof, Muriel’s Place is open to the public every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 11 am – 2 pm for lunch and 5-7 pm for dinner. Off the Block™ pizzas come in seven varieties. They can be ordered hot or frozen, with dine-in and carry-out options available. Two flavors of homemade salsa are also available. All proceeds go directly back to Mentoring Positives, a transformational program serving youth in the Darbo-Worthington Park neighborhood.

RIBBON CUTTING SLATED FOR THURSDAY, MAY 18 @ 4PM
The Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce is hosting a ribbon cutting event for the grand opening of Muriel’s Place, 2844 E Washington Ave, located on the ground level of the new Ella Apartments Building. Guest speakers include Chamber President Zach Brandon and City of Madison staff.

“In the throes of the pandemic, standing outside, physically distanced, Will laid out his vision for a new space for Mentoring Positives,” said Zach Brandon, President of the Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce. “It is exciting to see the official opening of this space, which serves as a monument to Will and Becky’s unrelenting commitment to inspiring, guiding and serving as champions for young people in this community.”

MORE SPACE MEANS MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUTH
Previously, Off the Block™ products were produced in a shared commercial space leased at FEED Kitchens on Madison’s north side. They are sold at several Madison area locations, including Willy Street Co-op, Metcalfe’s Market and Regent Street Market.

“FEED Kitchens has been a nurturing space as our youth have built and grown the Off the Block™ brand,” said co-founder Becky Green. “Our success there has been a springboard for our kids to further stretch their entrepreneurial skills.”

“At Muriel’s Place, they can see, learn and touch every aspect of the business, from sourcing Wisconsin ingredients to managing a pizza assembly line, taking care of equipment, marketing their products and delivering excellent customer service,” Becky Green said.

With more ways to buy Off the Block™ products, the group hopes to increase sales and invest even more in the people who will eventually become adult leaders of the Darbo-Worthington neighborhood and beyond.

MURIEL’S PLACE NAMED AFTER BELOVED MOM
Founded in 2004, Mentoring Positives utilizes group mentoring, athletics and entrepreneurial opportunities to guide and empower disadvantaged youth. A former star UW-Eau Claire basketball player, Will Green uses the basketball court as his meeting place for building relationships with young people.

With backgrounds in psychology and social work, the Greens first met while working at the Eau Claire Academy, a residential treatment center for youth with emotional and behavioral problems. It was there that Will and Becky, both raised by devoted single moms, cemented their collective passion for helping young people chart their path to adulthood.

Muriel’s Place is named after Will’s mom, Muriel Pipkins, who died at age 46 of breast cancer.

“She is my hero and my motivation for helping kids”, said Will Green. I turned my pain into passion after her death.

“I grew up without a father and my mom made heroic sacrifices so I could succeed. I want to give that same love and affection she showed to our family, friends back home in our community in Gary, Indiana,” Green added. Our youth in the Madison community face monumental challenges. If we mentor and wrap them in love and support, while equipping them to succeed, I believe they will have a bright future.”
