I realize that our Community Board is dilapidated, doesn't hold much information, but it is the place that these kinds of things should be advertised. The other venues for advertising are the RiverValley Times, flyer at the shopping center and the community cable station.
Perhaps we need a new digitized sign for community event use. What do you think? "

I read that and thought about the signs... I like them. Especially if I've been wondering when a certain event will be, or if I have been out of town, I drive in and find out whats comin up. I also think they look nice, I haven't seen a "tacky" one yet. i'm sorry to COMPLAIN, but god all people do around here is COMPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also like the banners....they are eye catching and easy to quickly digest the message presented.
As for a digitized sign, I think the cost would be a problem as well as programming to keep the info up to date. Usually there are 2 or 3 banners at the entrance so you would need a rather large digital sign to give the events a view as cars roll in.
I think the ARC does a good job of policing the banners and none are tacky looking.
As for the sign boards, they are useless....in spite of the efforts of those who maintain them. You can't read them from a car leaving the compond.
