Banner Creations producer of the VONNcouver banners on Green/Eco Friendly material, was featured on the KARE 11 news 6 pm broadcast February 17th 2010. It was the same day Lindsey Vonn’s family was displaying the banner at the Vancouver Olympics in support of her Gold Medal performance.
Kenneth Dean, Account Manager with Banner Creations, who worked with Lindsey Vonn’s Uncle to help produce the VONNcouver banners said, “It’s great even in the smallest way to be part of a worldwide event like the Olympics especially when supporting an incredible hometown and now Gold Metal athlete like Lindsey Vonn!”

It’s great to see a local person in the Olympic games. Even better that a local company is involved.

I’m a public school teacher and we’ve got many fabric banners encouraging responsible citizenship from our students. It seems too obvious that we should be modeling responsible citizenship by purchasing banners made from recycled plastic bottles and printed with water soluble inks.

As a manager at Banner Creations I think I can speak for us all when I say we were really proud to produce this job. It’s great to get noticed for our environmentally friendly products. We really believe in them. Plus to be a part of the Olympics and support Lindsey Vonn was an honor.
