New Signs To Beautify Uptown Leamington

New signs will soon line the streets of uptown Leamington.

The BIA purchased the new pole mounted signs for roughly $6,000.

Lisa Bradt with the BIA says the new signs depict five different images representing the town.

"We have one that has 'welcome' in a variety of different languages," she says. "We also have some landscape pictures such as the monarch butterfly, a boat sailing on the lake and a Baltimore Oriole. We also have one depicting all of the different produce grown in the area."

Bradt says businesses hope the new signs will help make the area a more inviting place to visit and shop.

The town will install the signs while Christmas wreaths are hung this year.

They will be on the poles permanently after that.
