Topping off a landmark

Area’s eastern entrance extends a “Welcome”

Crews from Image King Signs of Eugene were busy putting some finishing touches on the Walterville sign last Thursday.

WALTERVILLE: The “Gateway sign” at the western entrance of the McKenzie Valley was being readied for completion by workers last week. Supporters of the project, like the McKenzie River Chamber of Commerce, say it was originally designed to welcome tourists by now will “have even greater significance as a way to help encourage and give hope to communities and residents as they rebuild following the devastating Holiday Farm Fire.”

A similar sign will be installed near the Hwy. 20/Hwy. 126 to welcome people as they enter the area from the east.
