The Star - News, views and advertising of the Grand Coulee Dam Area

The Grand Coulee Dam Area Rotary Club has started planning for a few community projects.

One project is to gather all the individual services club, church and other not-for-profit organizational signs that are individually placed along State Roads 155 and 174 and place them all on one of four large “welcome” boards at four new locations.

Those locations will generally be on the north end of State Road 155 near Coulee Dam and the south end near Electric City. Also, on State Road 174 on the east end on Grand Coulee as well as the west end just as one enters town.

We are asking the leadership of service clubs, churches and other not-for-profit organizations to contact us and let us know if you are willing to have your “greeting signs” placed on these proposed new larger “welcome boards.” If you don’t currently have a greeting sign and would like to add a sign to these new, large boards, you are welcome too. We are still in the planning stages and need to contact WSDOT and the communities regarding best locations for the new welcome boards. You can drop by one of weekly meetings, Wednesday at noon, at the Siam Palace. Or, drop a note to our mail box at P.O. Box 367, Grand Coulee, WA 99133. You can also call Bob Valen, listed in the phone book. Thank you.
