Salle RANDELL Hall, CHAMBLY WOODCRAFTS and St. Stephen's Anglican Church in Chambly, Québec

People often ask me what do we spend all of our time at CHAMBLY WOODCRAFTS doing? Lately, we have spent a fair amount of time designing a very large and outstanding exterior sign for a Chambly, Québec community hall called Salle Randell Hall. This marvelous facility is owned by the historic St. Stephen's Anglican Church(built in 1820) which is located just to the left of Randell Hall.

This sign project is a tremendous challenge for our small but dynamic company! We have never undertaken a sign this creative before and we were granted the exclusive right to design, fabricate and install it. In other words, no finger pointing; screw up & look in the mirror.

We will keep you posted on our progress. Please wish us luck!!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Les gens me demandent souvent ce qui nous passent tout notre temps à faire de CHAMBLY WOODCRAFTS? Récemment, nous avons passé une quantité considérable de temps concevant un signe extérieur très grand et exceptionnel pour un Chambly, Québec communauté Salle appelé par Salle Randell Hall. Ce bâtiment merveilleux est possédé par l'église Anglicanne historique de St. Stephen (construite en 1820) qui est située juste à la gauche de Randell Hall.
Ce projet de signe est un défi énorme pour nos petite mais dynamique compagnie! Nous n'avons jamais entrepris un signe ceci créateur avant qu'et on nous ait accordé la droite exclusive de la concevoir, fabriquer et installer. En d'autres termes, aucune indication par les doigts ; vis haute et regard dans le miroir.
Nous vous maintiendrons signalé sur notre progrès. Veuillez nous souhaiter bonne chance ! !
