StumbleBillboard given for fund-raiser
Thursday, May 8, 1997 | 11:59 a.m.
The Young Electric Sign Co. has donated the use of its billboard at West Sahara Avenue near Las Vegas Boulevard to promote Nevada Law Officers Memorial fund-raising efforts.
The sign reads: "To Honor Them Is to Remember Them." Also featured is an artist's rendering of the memorial and a phone number to call in donations.
"These Nevada law enforcement officers made the ultimate sacrifice for us," said Mike Weber, YESCO's Las Vegas sales division manager said. "Now it's time for us to do something for them."
The monument is slated to be erected at the state Capitol in Carson City.
