COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL
BMD seeks Town Logo Design submissions
Transforming
the
Slabtown vs Lemati Feud
into a year-round compe-
tition requires blending
the past with the present
— and recreate the 19th
Century feuding towns of
Cottage Grove (Slabtown)
and Lemati.
Any new town needs a
logo. The Bohemia Min-
ing Days Board will invite
two graphic designers to
select four logo designs
that meet the criteria be-
low, which settlers of the
two towns will vote on.
The logo with the highest
votes becomes that town’s
official logo.
It will be used on mer-
chandizing to raise mon-
ey to produce the annual
BMD celebration and will
be used in the festival’s
promotional materials.
Five rules of logo design
• Your logo should
reflect your town in a
unique and honest way.
• Avoid too much de-
tail.
• Your color logo should
work well in black and
white (one-color print-
ing).
• Make sure your town’s
logos scalable.
• Your logo should be
artistically balanced.
7 basic rules for logo
design
A logo must: commu-
nicate, be relevant, be
memorable, be timeless,
should not have superflu-
ous elements, should be
technically well crafted
and must be versatile.
8 steps to design a sim-
ple logo
• Understand why you
need a logo.
• Define your brand
identity.
• Find inspiration for
your design.
• Check out the compe-
tition.
• Choose your design
style.
• Find the right type of
logo.
• Pay attention to color.
• Pick the right typog-
raphy.
BMD is struggling fi-
nancially at this time
and seeks artists who
will provide logo designs
pro-bono as a gift to fu-
ture generations who will
proudly use it. The 61st
Annual Bohemia Mining
Days Celebration was one
of many casualties of the
COVID-19 global pan-
demic in 2020.
The potential of having
to cancel this year’s festi-
val to protect the health
and safety of Grovers
and our guests means the
BMD Board of Directors
needs to creatively seek
new revenue sources to
ensure the future of Cot-
tage Grove’s biggest event
of the year.
The submitted designs
that follow the guidelines
below will be publicized
with the graphic artist’s
name as part of the voting
process.
