LINX Transit - Request for Photos

Press Release - July 8, 2020

The Linn Shuttle is taking possession of a new bus in the next few weeks and would like the bus to be wrapped with a “Lebanon theme.”  The Linn Shuttle has several buses that make numerous loops, starting in Sweet Home, through Lebanon and into Albany each day.  They currently have a bus wrapped for Sweet Home, one for Linn County and one for LBCC, so they thought it would make sense to add Lebanon in the mix.

We are reaching out to local photographers to submit photos that could be included on the bus.  If selected, photographers would receive a gift card to a local Lebanon restaurant, for dine-in or take out.    

Here are some initial thoughts as to what we might look for and we are definitely open to other ideas: 

• Strawberry Plaza
• Strawberry Festival/Parade
• New Entrance Sign
• Cheadle Lake
• Water Tower
• Downtown photos
• Biking or some other activity, BLT trails
• Mountains and/or wildflowers – Peterson’s Butte or Ridgeway Butte 
• Parks
• River/Bridge/Railroad
• Industrial area
• Anything that symbolizes the Lebanon community

Please submit photos and inquiries to koliver@ci.lebanon.or.us, by Friday, July 17th, 2020. Images should be 100 dpi, at 100%, as the photos will be 42-48” high and wide. 

We will ask photographers to sign a release for use of the photo on the bus, if chosen.  Once the bus is ready for service, we’ll have a reveal and have another opportunity to thank the photographers for their donations and assistance with the wrap for the bus. 

Please reach out if you have any other questions.  Thank you for your consideration to donate photos for this fun project.
