YES yard signs are finished, and here's how you can get one.
Thanks to our generous donors and the diligent efforts of Pete Lyons at Digital Resource Center, we have YES yard signs ready to award to those blog readers who have something positive to advocate.
You decide what to write. YES signage is non-partisan and non-denominational, so get a Sharpie or fat Magic Marker and tell us what you’re “for” here in New Albany. Be sure to write your choices in large letters so the words can be read from the street.
Are there NO signs in your neighborhood? Consider a YES sign in your yard as counterweight to the negativity.
But before we go any further, please be aware of proper sign placement!
Yard signs are just that: Signs for a yard, not a public right-of-way (including the grass strip between the sidewalk and street), utility poles, street signage and the like. Erect yard signs on your property, not someone else’s – not the state’s the city’s or the utility’s properties.
Business owners are very much encouraged to take part in the YES effort, especially (but not exclusively) downtowners. Consider placing your YES sign in a window, and explain to your customers that we’re advocating a message of what we’re for, not against.
YES yard signs will be available for pickup from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, at DRC:
Digital Resource Center
302-B Pearl Street
New Albany, IN 47150
* One sign per household, please
* No charge, BUT if you haven’t already done so, please consider donating a few dollars to go toward paying for the next round. Pete will have a coffee can or something like it, so drop a fiver in it.
There also will be a limited number of YES yard signs at Bank Street Brewhouse on Saturday and Sunday for the convenience of after-hours YES men and women. There’ll be a coffee can there, too.
My first choice is for distribution to proceed on the basis of an honor system, so please: Don’t abuse it.
Thanks for your creativity! It’s time to go green.
