The Founders’ award, established in 2003, was created to recognize those bankers who have devoted their lives, and livelihoods, to their communities. They embody commitment and devotion, and represent the best in community banking. The award is named for Robert D. Dixon, who co-founded Community Bankers of Iowa (then Iowa Independent Bankers) in 1971.
Each year, community bankers from around Iowa present nominations of their peers. The current President of CBI presents the award to the winner at the Kickoff Reception of CBI's Management Conference and Annual Convention, held in July.
