Morris County, NJ — As the nation prepares to mark the 250th Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Morris County is inviting local businesses, organizations, and community partners to take part in this once-in-a-generation milestone with the release of the official Morris County 250th Anniversary Brand Kit.
Developed by the Morris County 250th Steering Committee, the Brand Kit provides approved logos and branding tools designed to help partners visibly align with Morris County’s year-long 250th Anniversary celebrations in 2026. The kit ensures consistent use of the official 250th Anniversary of the Revolution branding while offering flexibility for organizations across industries to participate in ways that feel authentic to their mission and audience.
“As we prepare for this historic anniversary, it’s important that our community moves forward together with a shared identity,” said Samantha Rutledge, Director of Strategic Partnerships for the Morris County Tourism Bureau. “The Brand Kit gives businesses and organizations a simple, effective way to participate in the 250th while helping create a cohesive and recognizable presence across Morris County.”
The Morris County 250th Anniversary Brand Kit includes official logos, guidance for appropriate use across print and digital materials, and inspiration for co-branding across retail, hospitality, education, tourism, and community programming. Participating organizations are encouraged to use the branding on marketing materials, signage, promotions, special events, educational initiatives, and visitor touchpoints throughout the anniversary year.
“This Brand Kit empowers our business community to proudly take part in a nationally significant celebration while showcasing what makes Morris County special,” said Meghan Hunscher, President and CEO of the Morris County Chamber of Commerce. “It’s an opportunity to demonstrate local pride, engage customers, and be part of a historic moment.”
By using the official branding, partners gain increased visibility among residents and visitors, help strengthen community pride, and align their organization with a milestone of national importance. Participation also reinforces Morris County’s role as a crossroads of the American Revolution and a leader in commemorating the nation’s founding.
The Brand Kit complements a broader countywide effort to engage local businesses and organizations through sponsorship opportunities, community partnerships, and promotional initiatives tied to 250th Anniversary events and programming.
The Morris County 250th Anniversary Brand Kit is now available for download at morriscounty250.org, where organizations can access the assets and learn more about ways to get involved.
