Behind the Sign

Meyer Sign is proud to have been chosen to design, fabricate, and install an impressive sign that marks the entry to Skagit Regional Airport -- thanks to a collaboration between Port of Skagit and Heritage Flight Museum. While the sign itself is impressive -- just try and find another sign in the Magic Skagit that has an actual airplane mounted to it -- the bigger story "behind the sign" is the historical and cultural venue it signifies. In this Tales From the Magic Skagit story, the executive director of Heritage Flight Museum, Lt. Col. Greg Anders, shares the story of his family's tribute to combat air veterans, and the legacy it hopes to leave for the Skagit Valley.

Even before we ever heard the word "coronavirus," Sarkall's Donuts & Noodle Soup had to weather a personal crisis. But even in the midst of pandemic, the Burlington purveyor of killer donuts continues to serve up some of the best ethnic cuisine you'll find in the Magic Skagit.

If you want to do some boot scooting, The Bony Pony isn’t your venue. If, however, you want to purchase the boots to scoot in, you need to visit the retailer that describes itself as “The Complete Store for Horse & Rider.”

When we look back on our communal life in 2019, one of the high points of the year will undoubtedly be the opening of the new YMCA facility. It will certainly be a memorable experience for the organization’s executive director, Dean Snider.

We like to think of it as "the little town that could" -- although it's perhaps better known as the "Gateway to the North Cascades." However you like to think of it, there's plenty to love about Sedro-Woolley...and Meyer Sign & Advertising is proud to be a part of its future.
