Sponsor a Rose City Park sign topper on your block! Plus, you can buy one for your home!

Posted on by

The Rose City Park Neighborhood Association is pleased to offer sign toppers again to neighbors for the first time since 2007! Our goal is to blanket the streets to help identify our neighborhood, build some civic pride, and help beautify our community. The neighborhood association has already dedicated some funds to get this work started. Now, we need your help to sponsor a sign for the many blocks in Rose City Park.
Sponsor a Sign On Your Block
You can have a sign installed on your neighborhood street!
  • To have a sign installed on your street, make a donation of $100 to the RCPNA. This will cover the cost of sign production and installation, which must be done by the city.
  • The installation will be coordinated by the neighborhood with PBOT.
Buy One For Home
You can also purchase a sign and have it delivered to your door. Put a sign up in your basement, garage, bedroom — your front lawn, anywhere! A donation of $100 will help with production costs and help offset the cost of installation of the remaining signs throughout the neighborhood.
Business Sponsorships
We are always looking for ways to mutually support our Rose City Park neighborhood businesses. A business donation can help offset our production and installation costs so we can stretch our dollars as far as possible. Consider sharing this opportunity with your Rose City business network. Those who donate will get a sign topper to proudly display!
How to Sponsor
Sponsor a sign using the RCPNA Venmo account below. Or, you can purchase by mailing a check to the RCPNA Treasurer at RCPNA ℅ Crockett, 2214 NE 51st Avenue, Portland, OR 97213. Make checks payable to RCPNA.
  • If you are sponsoring a sign for your block, please enter the cross streets where you want the sign (“NE 55th and Tillamook”) in the purchase notes.
  • If you want a sign for home, please note your home address where we can deliver the sign.
We are expecting sign production to take 2-3 months as we accrue enough funds for a bulk purchase. Installation by PBOT is also expected to take an additional 2-3 months, depending on workload. We are working to try and combine these installations with other work PBOT has planned in the neighborhood to reduce costs.
Questions
If you have questions, please contact Victor Sanders at victor.cmyk@gmail.com.

Fred Meyer Junior Parade – June 4th, 1:00-3:00 PM – Join the Fun!

Fred Meyer Junior Parade logoFun reigns at the Fred Meyer Junior Parade from the moment the lovable Fred Bear cuts the ribbon to the last float that goes down the street. Children from all parts of Portland participate by dressing in costume, transforming wagons into floats, decorating bikes with colorful flowers, or just by parading with friends and family. The parade also includes local school marching bands and dance teams.

The Junior Parade is the oldest and largest Children’s Parade in the Nation. Hope to see you there!
