Residents of Tusayan and surrounding municipalities currently drive more than an hour to Flagstaff to make basic bank transactions.

Businesspeople, residents and local leaders gathered in Tusayan, Wednesday, May 21, to discuss the return of banking services to the Grand Canyon. Pinnacle Bank Regional President Greg Behn and other bank representatives hosted the gathering to explore banking options with the community, including opening a branch in the rural town near the South Rim and installing ATM Live services, which would allow customers to speak with a teller virtually.
