Celebrate Shrewsbury's 100th with a Personalized Banner

Get a banner for your family or company, and it'll be displayed during Shrewsbury's 100th year in 2013.

It's almost Shrewsbury's 100th birthday, and residents are preparing to celebrate in style.

The city will decorate light poles throughout Shrewsbury with banners celebrating Shrewsbury's centennial. (Check out the photo gallery above for examples!)

The committee organizing the Shrewsbury Centennial Celebration hopes to hang personalized banners on Shrewsbury Avenue, Laclede Station Road, Watson Road and other roads through town. Historic buildings, like the City Center, will have their own banners honoring their history.
