The Town of Old Lyme and the Sound View Commission have announced a friendly competition for display banner designs for Sound View Beach. The Sound View improvements project includes four banner poles placed on Hartford Avenue, which can accommodate banners measuring approx. 2ft. wide by 3ft. tall. The banners can be viewed from both sides, therefore up to eight panels can be approved. Panels can be duplicated or there can be eight different designs. The banners will be displayed from Memorial Day to mid-September.
The Town and the Commissione are soliciting designs for the banners. Although the concept for design is fairly open, it should be welcoming, colorful and unique to Sound View. Sound View is Americas First Public Beach, established in 1892, and is a Registered Connecticut Historic Place.
All design entries must be received by April 30, 2018, allowing time for selection and custom ordering of the banners.
Design entries can be sent by mail to Selectmans Office, 52 Lyme St., Old Lyme, CT 06371 or via email to [email protected]. If chosen, an electronic version suitable for printing will be required.
For further information and any questions, email [email protected] with the Subject Line: Sound View Banner Design.
All entries will be displayed at Old Lyme Town Hall during the month of May.
