Kamm's Corners Development has partnered with the Our Lady of Angels Federal Credit Union to make their services available to all Friends of Kamm's Corners! The Credit Union is located in Linus Hall adjacent to the Church on Rocky River Drive, and is open Monday evenings only from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. They can be reached on Mondays at 216-252-0665 or via email to president Jim Foos at jfoosjr at adelphia.net.

Adopt a Spot Program

...for neighborhood planters on Rocky River Drive and Lorain Avenue

Are you looking for a fantastic advertising opportunity that reaches over 25,000 people every day? Sponsor a neighborhood planter and your name will be placed on a planter (as pictured above) for the entire year!

There are two ways to participate:

If you are a landscaper or nursery

You agree to plant and maintain two planters for the growing season, one of which will have your name on it. KCDC will purchase and install the signage and post the pictures of your work on our website. There is no fee beyond your costs to plant and maintain the planter.

If you are an area business seeking an advertising opportunity

You can adopt a spot for one year for a fee of $300. KCDC will purchase and install the signage, and one of the neighborhood landscapers will plant and maintain it for you. You have no further responsibility, and you will enjoy the benefits of the 25,000 vehicles that pass the sign every day.

To participate in the program, contact Steve Lorenz at 216-252-6559 ext. 1100, or email him at steve.lorenz at kammscorners.com.
