The Business Members of the Long Lake Chamber started on Saturday October 4th
a complete sign restoration project around the lake. As any local resident or tourist could see our informational signs at certain intersections looked hideous!
For many years the Chamber has been granted permission to keep these posts up and maintain them. Unfortunately it has gotten away from us and private parties have
been posting thier own signs. The signs are worn and torn, people have moved or passed away so in last year we have begun this restoration project.They were in desperate need of uniformity. If you had a sign up that you would like back, please contact Butch at Props: 354-3515 OR
if you would like a new sign added to this fresh new line, you must be a social member ($15) of the chamber and the sign will cost $40. To become a member please go to the "Coupon" page and print out an application. Thank you!
Thank you to all the Business Members who put in a hard day's work!
