Banner Project
Flower Baskets by Old Towne Reedsport Merchants Association
The Banner Project is a priority revitalization project that will place colorful banners in all three commercial districts, with differentiating colors to separate each district, demonstrating a unified visual focus through our community highways. These colorful banners will decrease visual blight while creating a more attractive atmosphere for tourists and visitors to "Stop, Shop, and Discover!" The banners display a range of bright, eye-catching designs that capitalize Reedsport’s assets and encourage tourism. The banners help define our commercial districts, draw attention from both tourists and visitors, and promote our economic vitality.
This project has been completed through the tireless efforts of volunteers who have confidence in the future of Reedsport. A professional graphic designer originally from Reedsport worked with the RMSP logo, along with feedback from our committees, to create and donate our banner designs. The signs were printed by Signs and Shirts Unlimited, a Reedsport business that acquired new equipment and learned new skills specifically for this project, now giving them the opportunity to expand their business to more customers.
We raised more than half the funds needed to purchase and place these banners in all three commercial districts by donations through our main street bricks. It cost about $5,000 for the banners and brackets. Downtown, midtown, and uptown banners have been put into place! The banners were redesigned in 2019 to commemorate the Centennial Celebration of the City, originally incorporated in 1919. With your help, we can make sure all three commercial districts in Reedsport have colorful banners to create a more attractive business district and attract more visitors and customers to our local businesses.
