In 2026, the United States of America will celebrate a remarkable milestone—250 years of freedom, history, and patriotism!

To commemorate this historic occasion, we invite Herrin businesses to participate in the "Let's Paint Herrin Red, White & Blue" Contest.

Show your patriotic spirit by decorating your business in red, white, and blue! Whether you use bunting, banners, flags, window displays, painted murals, creative lighting, or unique patriotic themes, we want to see your imagination and community pride on display.

Let's work together to transform Herrin into a vibrant celebration of America's 250th birthday and showcase the pride that makes our community special.

🏆 Prizes will be awarded for the most creative and patriotic displays.

Gather your team, get creative, and help us paint Herrin red, white, and blue!

Show us your patriotic spirit and be part of this once-in-a-generation celebration!

Businesses must be decorated by July 1 and the winner will be decided July 8.
