REFLECTIVE ADDRESS SIGN
In an Emergency, locating the caller’s address as soon as possible is the first step in saving lives and property. Improper addressing frustrates emergency responders, but it could be deadly to the resident because of the delays that result. Proper address marking is the responsibility of the citizen and the Perryville Lions Club can help residents in this matter. The double sided reflective signs are available for $20.00. The numbers are peel and stick and can be applied vertically or horizontally to your ordered sign. The signs have 4 holes for easy mounting and rounded corners for safety. Please contact a local club member. A reflective address sign can make our community a safer place to live. (Upated 2014)
