Using Your Sign for Community Health
With the unprecedented events surrounding the COVID-19 health crisis, our hearts and thoughts go out to all who have been affected. As with most locations, our community has also been impacted.
As Americans and citizens of an increasingly connected world, it is important for all of us to do our part in helping others during this difficult time. Below are some ideas on using your sign to promote community spirit and healthy practices.
For Stewart LED sign users, the animations shown are available in the graphics library. For other sign owners, we have made these animations available free to download (MP4 format).
