The Board of Directors of American River Bankshares announced the re-election of all eight Directors at their Annual Meeting held Thursday, May 19th in Rancho Cordova, California.

In his address to shareholders, David Taber, President and CEO of American River Bankshares, discussed the Company's performance and strategic direction.

"American River Bankshares' specialty approach to business banking clearly differentiates us in an increasingly homogeneous industry," said David Taber. "With 71% of our checking and money market deposits coming from businesses, we have a strategy that puts us in a class of our own with a model that is very difficult to duplicate."
