We were so impressed with the show of class at Notre Dame in 2006, that we wanted to spread the word. We also wanted to make it easy for businesses to implement and so we created a few game day tools for businesses. One of them – ready-to-go welcome signs.
This weekend, Carolina plays the Cavaliers from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia.
We suggest that businesses in the Chapel Hill/Carrboro area post welcoming signs in the door, windows and/or counter tops. Here is one of the signs we’ve created:
A simple message. Easy to print and post. Click here to download for free.
Take it a step further and ask staff members to greet UVA fans by saying “Welcome to Chapel Hill” or “Welcome to Carrboro”.
For an added touch, prepare your staff with tidbits about UVA like:
- UVA is in Charlottesville, Virginia.
- Their colors are dark blue and orange.
- They are the Virginia Cavaliers.
- They also call themselves the Wahoos. A good question to ask them would be “What is a Wahoo?” Here are a couple of articles in case you’d like to do a bit of advance research. Being a Wahoo and What is a Wahoo?
A welcome sign, a verbal welcome, a bit of background info to show we care. Such small gestures that involve little to no cost but have great meaning. And show definite signs of class.

P.S. Of course, we also encourage you to show your support for the home team. An easy way is to post these signs.
