Grassroots group needs help rotating new banners to strategic spots near Reston National Golf Course.

Rescue Reston, the grassroots group aimed at stopping development at has two new banners it hopes will get the attention of local residents. 

The banners that say "It's Colts Neck Road not Bottle Neck Road,” and ‘It's Sunrise Valley Drive not Hi-rise Valley drive," have been placed in several spots on roads nearby the golf course in South Reston.

The group wants to move them around every few days in order to garner to biggest audience.

"It is important because the banners do not become a part of everyday scenery, said Rescue Reston executive director John Pinkman. "But we will need help to move the signs in the coming weeks."

Rescue Reston was formed over the summer after it was learned at RN Golf Management inquired whether the 166-acre course had residential zoning. When the county said it did not, the ownership group filed an appeal. The zoning appeal will be heard on Jan. 30.
