LIVE BREATHE BANK KC BANKING ON THE BUSINESS OF LEE’S SUMMIT From nationally expanding corporations to beloved local bookstores, Country Club Bank believes in business. A venture only needs a financial spark to ignite success, and we understand that. We wouldn’t be what we are if a bank hadn’t taken a chance on entrepreneur/former Chairman Byron Thompson decades ago. That spirit of listening, believing and building through personal attention is the foundation of all we support at Country Club Bank. Advancing business is good for you, good for us and good for the city we call home.
