FUNDRAISER FOR NEW WANAQUE BOROUGH SIGN

Are you a bit tired of the Wanaque Borough sign being stolen on a regular basis? We want to build one that is quite a bit harder to damage.

Our goal is to raise enough money to build a brick sign on the other side of the street at the corner on Union and Ringwood Ave.

We are selling DONOR BRICKS. The bricks we sell will be on the back of the sign not the front. We feel that this is important enough to the community that the donors don’t mind being out of direct view. We hope you feel that way too!

Our target to 200 bricks. One hundred for each sign. Gold Sponsor Bricks are $100 and you have several choices of how you want to engrave it. Silver Sponsor Bricks are $40. A Silver Sponsor will get one line of text and share the brick with two other Silver Sponsors.
