Attracting Attention

By Lee Lattimer

Many people discover the Arboretum when they notice the signs for Landis on Route 20 in Esperance. Recently our reach has been extended to Route 88. Whether you are driving east or west, just before Duanesburg the Attractions signage now includes a bright white emblem stating "George Landis Arboretum" with the "I (Heart) NY" logo.

Smaller images of the same sign appear on or at the end of the ramp (pointing towards Route 20) and at Route 20 pointing right (pictured). These not only attract new visitors, but also make it easier for those coming to our scheduled events.
