Mosaic's Follow The Yellowstone Road

LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

Mosaic Outdoor Clubs of America (MOCA) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to organizing outdoor and environmental activities. Through its many member clubs throughout the US, Canada, and Israel, Mosaic serves Jews of all ages, both married and single, who share a love for nature and the outdoors and other adventures throughout the year. MOCA is sponsoring a 10-day trip to Yellowstone Park in May 2009, entitled Follow the Yellowstone Road. The trip will include both guided and unguided hikes in three areas of the park: the Lake Village, Old Faithful Village, and Mammoth Springs. We expect around 25 people to attend.

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We are looking for an event logo for the trip, as well as a header banner (780 x 216 pixels) for the event website and a smaller banner (380x164 pixels) for the websites front page. The logo will appear on the website, and all communications including posters, flyers, stationery, signage and promotional clothing (t-shirt or baseball cap)

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Jewish singles and couples ages 30s to 50s from the US, Canada and Israel.

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

These are some of the banners we have used for previous events. Note that some were logo banners alone, while the 2008 Kibbitz banner used bothe a logo (the word bubbles) on a photographic banner. Were looking for a similar type feel to these banners, although we do not need the address or phone number. We will need the Mosaic club logo somewhere on the banner, though. http://www.mosaicevent.org/archives/even...

One idea that was suggested to illustrate Follow the Yellowstone Road was a bear walking arm in arm with two hikers as they walked down a yellow brick road. Another thought included a yellow brick road leading to geysers, waterfalls, bison, etc. It doesnt have to be too complex, as we need to print on t-shirts in 3-4 colors and screens (max), but the concept we are looking for in the logo is a take off on the Wizard of Oz theme where Yellowstone is the Emerald City. Having hikers in there or a suggestion of hikers would be cool.

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don't want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

For the logo:

The words: Follow the Yellowstone Road

Must Be able to translate from the web to stationary to baseball caps or shirts.

For the large header banner:

-The logo you create

- The MOCA logo

You may use background photos if it will enhance your design that do not have a copyright issue. We like photos of folks being active in the outdoors and/or pics of Yellowstone or animals one might see there.

For the smaller banner:

- the event logo you create either alone or with photo (see past years samples)

DO NOT Want -

Nothing too complicated.

Do not need organization address or phone number.
