     These are  "Special Projects"  that the City of Gilbert, private citizens and local businesses are involved in for our community and visitors to enjoy.

 

    Banners for Broadway

Banners for Broadway project will help beautify our main street and entrance to town from Highway 135 by hanging banners welcoming everyone to town. These orange, black and white banners will depict what Gilbert has to offer. The banners will proudly be displayed each summer from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Plans for the banners are available to see at City Hall or you may call 218 748-2232 with any questions.
In order to help with the cost, we are asking for donations to show your pride in Gilbert by making a tax-deductible donation. Each banner set (banner & bracket) will cost approximately $150.00 and we plan  on displaying roughly 60 banners. Donations can be directed to:
