Highway Banners Boost Visibility for Questa Businesses

  • Local Champion: Questa Economic Development Fund
  • Date Funded: December 9, 2025
  • Grant Amount: $3,850

Questa’s local events and businesses lack high-visibility advertising that reaches everyone passing through town, resulting in lower attendance and missed economic growth opportunities. When staff members from the Village of Questa and the Questa Economic Development Fund recognized how this limited community awareness and tourism spending, they had an idea to install eye-catching banners along Highway 522.

LOR’s funding helped the Questa Economic Development Fund purchase banner poles, design services, and monthly promotional banners to highlight community events and local business promotions along the main highway. These prominent displays now ensure that both residents and travelers are aware of local activities and special offers, boosting event participation and supporting Questa’s economy.

This project is fiscally sponsored by Localogy.
