[Western Canada CORSA]

I agree on all counts.  But you know, we've got this great resource in the
Chapter President's List, and I've never seen a request from a smaller
chapter on it looking for help with something such as this on the list.  I
don't know for sure that there is somebody in one of the chapters somewhere
with the skill, tools and resources to assist in an endevour such as this,
but I'd give pretty good odds that there is.  We are all chapters of the
same club, I would hope that we'd be willing to help each other out.

Regards,
Joel

That's what we need and it shows the pride in it when you see others
wearing your shirts and they are not your members. When that happens you
know it's a good design. I think where the biggest problem is paying to
have them designed properly so the printer gets them in the right format
and you pick the right printer with the right process and you don't
learn all of this on your first shirt. But it is expensive for the
smaller clubs to do this with their limited budgets so they try
designing the shirts themselves. This presents a problem when it gets to
the printer. I'm not saying we lack talent because we have several great
artists because I've seen the hand drawings but that doesn't show in the
finished product. And then to find a printer that does the awards,
plaques, mugs, hats, etc. in the smaller communities is not always easy
either.

I agree.  Usually you are limited by how prolific (and talented) your
available artists are.  For me, the best was we did was a really cool
small
chest logo that we used for the front of the tee, the dash plaque and
other
saleable items, coffee mugs etc; and then a larger, rip snortin' design
on
the back of the tee.

I took a small amount of pride in the number of WCC event t-shirts I saw
at
last summer's convention, so many in fact that it was almost like a
uniform<G>

Just an opinion on my part, but in my line of thinking a great logo is
fine. But it does not have to be done on everything..........to
me.......boring!

Logo on maybe literature and program. How about something completely
different for the T-shirt?

Do the dash plaques have to match the awards?

If I was doing things, I would mix things up. How about an early model
on
the logo, then maybe a late and a van on the dash plaque? T shirt
including
a Wagon and an Ultra. Maybe even a choice on T-shirts, how about some
with
an early, others with a late.

Nah...............no one likes original thinking.
