Plan under way to erect new welcome signs in Boardman

BOARDMAN — When the Rev. Ash Welch first came to Boardman, he kept watch for signs welcoming him to the township.

“I almost missed it,” he said of the sign on U.S. Route 224 that he passed while driving from state Route 11.

At a recent trustee meeting, the Rev. Mr. Welch said the topic of new signs have been talked about for a long time, but now “it’s time to actually do something.”

“I would like to see our church come up with the money for the first sign,” said Mr. Welch, who is a pastor at Boardman United Methodist Church on Market Street.
