Yes, I speak from experience on that one! So, quality wayfinding or directional signage is a great investment for communities. There are some wonderful looks out there, so I encourage communities to do a little research. My recom- mendation is that these signs need to have the ability to be added to or swapped out as things may change within the community over time. I also recommend the community put together a committee to identify the town’s “big draws” and to make sure those locations are on the wayfinding signs.
