Get your creative juices flowing! We’re holding a contest to develop the Logo Theme for our 2013 American Cichlid Association convention. Entries are due not later than March 10, 2012. This date is a change to the one announced in the January newsletter! The entries will be judged at the March monthly meeting March 11th.
All entries should be sent to Bob Grauer (balibob5151@gmail.com ). If you have any questions, please direct them to Bob or Kevin Fehringer (fehringerk@ecentral.com).
Even, if you can only draw a stick man, er, stick fish, come up with a great idea and have a friend draw it up for you. You can see from logos for other conventions that there are no real rules. Milwaukee simply focused on a picture of a dwarf cichlid. Washington D.C. centered their logo on a more formal Capitol theme with a pair of zebras poking out each side. Indianapolis ties the Indy 500 motor race in with their cichlid. We had a cartoon Frontosa on skis for our 2004 logo. So think about what makes Colorado unique, and use that in your theme. Is it the mountains, Broncos (ooooh, Tim Tebow running with a pike in his hands!), fishing, hiking, a Frontosa with a Coors can in his fin? Let your imagination run wild and put it to paper.
Have fun!
Kevin Fehringer
