District 9820 is offering financial support to all Rotary Clubs to enable them to upgrade the Rotary signs around their locality and thereby ensure compliance with current Rotary branding guidelines.  They offer a reimbursement of $150, provided the D9820 Public Image group confirm the sign's compliance.
 
Inspection of the two current Rotary Club of Berwick signs at the East and West ends of High Street in Berwick, revealed that the signs were jaded and the Rotary logos were well out-of-date.  They were certainly non-compliant with current requirements.
 
After checking with the City of Casey on the correct protocols to follow to replace the signs, several updates were produced for consideration.  The Club's Public Image Committee members were given the opportunity to comment on the various versions. 
 
The final version was submitted to District 9820 Public Image Group who confirmed its compliance, but suggested a minor adjustment to the wording.  This suggestion was implemented and a proof was produced by Peter Stilburn at EZ Print for final approval.
 
 
On receiving final Club approval, two new metal signs with the same dimensions as the present signs, were produced.  These were displayed at the Club meeting on 2nd December before being passed on to the City of Casey for installation.  The latest advice is that they will be installed at 8:00 am on Tuesday 8th December.  We will collect the old signs as momentos.
 
Next time you pass by the town signage displays in High Street, look out for our flash new Rotary signs
 
Thank you to District 9820 for providing the financial incentive and to all those who contributed to the design of the final product.
