Results are in for new Dallas Foundation sign

The Dallas Foundation announces the results of its contest to determine the location of a Dallas School District sign.

There were 2,134 votes cast and 62.5% of the people voted to replace the existing sign at the intersection of Route 309 and Hildebrandt/Upper Demunds Road. The new sign is expected to arrive in January 2013.

The foundation chose the sign as one of its projects because its members wanted to do something that would benefit the entire community. The sign is a means of communicating information about academic, athletic and extracurricular events as well as other important announcements to students, faculty, families and the community at large.

In addition to the sign project, the foundation is currently working on funding various educational projects.

Donations to the Dallas Foundation are tax deductible and can be mailed to the Dallas Foundation, 1000 Wyoming Ave., Forty Fort, PA 18704 or made on the foundation's website at www.ourdallasfoundation.org.

Donations can be for general purposes or can be designated as to how the donor would like the donation to be used (e.g. education, sign, etc.).
