The Dassel Area Chamber of Commerce is considering erecting a sign advertising Dassel at the intersection of Highways 12 and 15.
City Administrator Myles McGrath distributed copies of a possible sign plan at the chamber meeting Tuesday at Jimmy’s Pizza in Dassel.
The proposed sign will be painted  both sides with reflective paint, for north- and south-bound travelers. The 6-foot by 8-foot sign will promote Dassel services and tourism in the Dassel area.
The sign is estimated to cost $500 to $1,200, and will be funded by annual advertisements for local merchants.
The chamber also is considering a sign or plaque informing tourists at the Mushroom Building along Highway 12 about its past as a 1920 filling station.
Other advertising proposals considered were flyers inserted in publications in the west metro area, and direct mail advertisements.
