Chesapeake Bank was honored by the Mathews County School Board at its May 17 meeting, after the bank was named to the Virginia School Boards Association 2022 Business Honor Roll. In recognizing Chesapeake Bank, school board chairman Linda Hodges, standing at right, said that she remembered when the bank first came to Mathews in 1980 that it said it would work to be a part of the Mathews community and it has certainly lived up to that promise.
