Since the beginning of the year, support for the 125th Anniversary of Henderson has been growing through the 125 Club and the Banner Project.
Through the 125 Club residents, friends and supporters of Henderson make a donation of $125 individually to support the activities that are planned for the 2012 events calendar in Henderson. With this membership, they receive a polo shirt available exclusively to 125 Club members, a certificate and recognition at Q125 events. The goal is to have 125 people join the 125 Club. There are currently 42 individuals who are members of the 125 Club. They include:

Through the Banner Project businesses, families, residents, memorials and friends of Henderson can support the 125th Anniversary of Henderson by providing the funds to purchase a banner with the Q125 logo that will hang in Henderson this year in place of the “Welcome to Henderson†banners. For a one time donation of $56, you will be listed as a banner sponsor and will have the option to keep your banner after 2012. There are only 11 banners remaining in this project, so be sure to contact the Henderson Chamber as soon as possible to secure your banner which will hang on 17th Street, Front Street and Main Street in 2012. Current banner sponsors include:
| Albert Thieszen |
