Hey, hey, hey...we have been working on a project for a while we can now share as installation is happening!

Check out the new directional signs next time you are headed through town, they are a work-in-progress but we are so excited at the first look!

A huge thanks to the team who has helped bring these to life: Gary & Darla Sobotka, the folks at Diagonal Building Products (Gina Warren, Blake Butler and Halle White), Danielle Newton and Claire Grace.
