Downtown Lock Haven Inc. and the Clinton County
Veterans Affairs Office are pleased to announce the 2009 Hometown Hero
Banner Program. This streetlight banner program is a tribute to those
from Clinton County who have or are serving our country in a branch of
the military.
The 2008 Clinton County Hometown Hero Program was a
successful project that included a total of 367 banners installed
downtown and along the river. This project started many initiatives
including the Clinton County Hometown Hero Mural, Comedy Night, and a
beautiful newspaper series now featured every Monday in the Express
entitled “The Lives Behind the Banners”. The impact of this program has
yet to be measured but we know it meant a great deal to over six hundred
family members and friends who attended the May unveiling ceremony. We
also know that we have made such an impression that communities across
Pennsylvania and from around the country are replicating this program.
The Clinton County Hometown Hero Program has brought our community
closer together; it is one that we wish to continue and that is why we
need your help.
The cost of a banner sponsorship is $200. A
sponsorship form is available for you to download. Please complete the
form and mail it with your sponsorship check made payable to Downtown
Lock Haven Inc. Your financial support will allow us to include over 350
banners in our downtown; a beautiful tribute to our veterans.
Banners sponsorships will be accepted until May
2009 and the new banners will be installed in August 2009. Please
contact us if you have any questions at (570) 748-1576 or email
downtown@lockhaven.org.
