Signs, signs, everywhere there’s signs – that’s how the lyrics go, and the sign that represents our community along Old Columbus road needs a face lift!
The Fundraising & Volunteers Committee has received Board of Trustees approval to refurbish it, and we’re calling on property owners to give us a hand with donations, tools, materials, or just two hands to help with the work!
The approved plan includes repairing/repainting the background, replacing the old lettering with new using the same font made from pine board that will be weather-sealed before painting to increase the longevity. The new logos will be made from treated plywood. Paint colors will remain the same.
We would also like to spruce up the area around the sign. Ross McQuirt of Oasis Landscaping has already offered some new plants for the landscaping, but the lawn edging needs replaced, and the solar lighting needs repaired or replaced if we can afford it. Work will begin as soon as the lettering and logos are ready, and weather makes it viable to paint. We expect this to be a weekend project.
F&V Committee member Dean Miller has taken charge of gathering materials, and the lettering / logos, and if you would like to make a donation you may contact any of the Committee members, or take it directly to the office and tell them you want it put towards the Main Sign Project. If we receive donations in excess of what is required the F&V Committee will give the remainder to the Beautification Committee’s 2017 budget to be used on their projects around the lake! Thanks in advance for your help!
