After years in the making, Colby College's "Walk of Champions" project was arriving at the finish line. The initiative would display athletic successes, specifically to honor conference championships and national championship appearances. To cultivate a welcoming focal point for their open display, Colby College opted to line the walk from start to finish with pole banners, each one tracing their accomplishments through the history of their program.
The two main qualities that Colby College looks for in a display comes down to the fundamentals- attractiveness and durability. The event space will be highly visible to the bustling campus crowd, while also being subjected to Maine's gusty winter storms. While Colby College had already used BannerSaver™ hardware for campus-wide displays, this venture was a new experience for their Athletics Department team. Their confidence in the product was already established, but what impressed them most was the collaborative and attentive spirit from our team that we bring to every project.
"The work and partnership by the BannerSaver team is the true gem we discovered. They are responsive, timely, cooperative, and make the customer's priority their own." -Adam Canfield, Associate Athletic Director, Colby College
What started as an idea turned into a landmark. The Walk of Champions is now a focal point for campus visitors and a visual celebration of the college's proudest athletic moments. One year later, the results speak for themselves. The installation looks as fresh as the day it was installed, with no signs of wear despite the efforts of Maine's extreme winter weather. With our top-of-the-line quality and industry leading warranty, Colby College can be confident that their installation will stand to honor their university's achievements for years to come.
