Creative Design Help Invited For Drone Show

300 drones with multi-colored lights will launch into the September night sky and from high overhead, form images and animations highlighting Longview’s creation and accomplishments, while inspiring future progress.

Use your imagination to develop a storyboard, images, and sounds to create an inspiring, emotional, memorable tribute to the founders and builders who made Longview a super home for all of us.
