PLBC Plumas Bancorp Inc

Plumas Bancorp (Nasdaq:PLBC), the parent company of Plumas Bank, announced that Director, President and Chief Executive Officer, Andrew J. Ryback, was recently appointed to the Board of the California Community Banking Network, (CCBN). A trade association in California that advocates exclusively for independent community banks, CCBN focuses on banking issues from a community banker's perspective. An affiliate of the Independent Community Bankers of America, or ICBA, CCBN was founded to serve as a distinct and authoritative voice for community banks throughout the Golden State.

Ryback commented, “It is important to improve and expand the banking industry; before the great recession there were over 100 de novo banks opening each year nationwide. In the past 6 years, only 4 de novo banks have opened; this is very disconcerting.  Community banks are the backbone of our Nation’s economy; they fund small businesses, make the vast majority of agricultural loans and reinvest dollars back into their local communities.  I am honored to be a part of an organization that focuses on helping community banks improve and grow through education and training; networking, lobbying, and creating products/services that are good for consumers and all communities, here in California and throughout the United States.”  

Ryback joined Plumas Bank in July 2001. In March 2010, Ryback was appointed interim President and Chief Executive Officer of Plumas Bancorp and Plumas Bank and in November 2011 that position became permanent. He became a member of the Company’s Board of Directors in 2016. Ryback received his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from California State University, Northridge. He is a Certified Public Accountant and a graduate of Pacific Coast Banking School.  Ryback actively serves in a variety of international, regional and local organizations. He is a member of Rotary International and is a past president of the Quincy Rotary Club. He also serves as the Treasurer on the Board of Directors of Sierra Cascade Family Opportunities and he chairs the Plumas District Hospital Bond Oversight Committee. Additionally, Ryback serves as Commissioner and Treasurer for the Quincy Fire Protection District; serving previously as a volunteer firefighter.
