Mariemont Centennial Flag Now Available for Purchase

The Mariemont Centennial Flag 19232023 was designed by Mariemont resident Tom Gilmore. It features the carillon, blue skies and green parks, and includes the Mariemont motto “dedicated to youth”. Flags are $60 each and can be purchased at https://mariemontpreservation.org/officialcentennial-flag or directly through the QR code below.

The Centennial Committee along with residents Julie Lockhart, Greg Long, and Bill Decamp are currently looking into alternatives to replace the faded lenses as well as alternative solutions to convert the streetlights to LED. It is estimated that a conversion to LED will save the Village around $4,000 annually in electricity..

For more information on the Centennial and how to adopt a streetlight, please visit www. mariemontpreservation.org/ centennial. You can also reach us at centennial@mariemont.org.
