Little Debbie Park Monument Sign – Collegedale, TN

Project Name: Little Debbie Park

Client: McKee Foods
Location: Collegedale, TN
Completion: 2023
Project Type: Monument & Interpretive Signage

Ortwein Sign partnered with McKee Foods to design, fabricate, and install signage for Little Debbie Park, a new community space in Collegedale, TN featuring state-of-the-art playground technology. We were honored to attend the park’s grand opening, alongside local dignitaries, the McKee family, project partners, and community members.

Our team created:

Monument signage at the park entrance, welcoming visitors and establishing a strong visual identity.

Trail signage along walking paths, providing educational content and celebrating the history of McKee Foods.

The project aimed to combine wayfinding, storytelling, and brand presence while integrating seamlessly with the park’s design and landscape.

Design & Fabrication

Monument and trail signs were crafted using 3/8” aluminum panels with routed graphics backed by white acrylic.

Painted in Sherwin Williams Burnished Brandy (SW#7523, satin finish) for durability and aesthetic appeal.

Digitally printed 3M Scotchcal translucent vinyl with UV overlaminate ensured vibrant, long-lasting graphics.

Signage was engineered and fabricated for safe, efficient installation and long-term outdoor performance.

Installation

Ortwein Sign installed all signage on-site, ensuring proper alignment, stability, and visibility. The monument sign marks the park entrance, while the trail signs guide and inform visitors throughout the park. The signage collectively enhances the visitor experience and highlights the McKee Foods legacy.
