Need Help Round Banner?

I have a customer that has a round Logo. It is a Masonic lodge.
They want to make a double sided round banner that would somehow attach to a pole so they could carry it in during a ceremony.
Any ideas?

Print a round logo on a square/rectangular banner.
Print/cut it on a rigid circular material with a couple holes to hang it from a pole. (holes at 10 & 2)

You aren't going to be able to hang a circular banner from a pole without it looking like crap.

Or, for a dumb idea I've never seen attempted, have one of those SEG/fabric companies print a 'bag' with a zippered edge, slip it over a hula hoop, then they can march all about and bounce wiffle balls off it into the crowd.

I don't mess with pvc much, would this be stout enough to not fold up with a gust of wind? Could you divide the ring into quarters with overlapping seams to cut the material usage down from a whole sheet to 1/4 sheet?
6mm ACM?

Why go to all that trouble? PVC rings would be too floppy.
Why not just print on Coro and cut out circle shapes, stick a dowel or pipe between the two sheets to use as a handle.

He wants a 4 foot banner he can roll up. I finally convinced him just to do a square banner like everybody else has.

Insist that it be mounted on rigid substrate. Then sell them a better solution.

Too often I've attempted to follow customers wants instead of approaching the project with my expertise.

Suggest a preferable solution and they will follow your lead.
