Logo for Camping Ministries

[CampGuy]

We are in need of a logo for our Camp & Rettreat Ministries

This is for: The California/Nevada United Methodist Church Camp & Retreat Ministries
(you can use "United Methodist Church" or "UMC")

The area covered is from San Francisco - eastern Nevada - (Golden Gate Bridge to Sierra Mtns)

This logo will be used on:
Web, T-Shirts, Stickers, Water Bottles, Pretty much anything we can print it on

- you can find links to other states camp programs and info about the National UMC Camp & Retreat Ministries at http://www.gbod.org/camping/default.asp

I would like something that has an up to date look - I am pretty open and willing to let you think outside the box.

This image is from the National Church Camp Newsletter - The Cross & Flame is the Logo for the United Methodist Church

Lets see what you all can come up with..

And here's the UMC's cross and flame resource page if you need different scaled versions for your design...

Here's a design to think about.

Thanks Palmer for the link to the UMC Logo -

chelle - Looks okay. It has a feel of something from the Pacific North West (Wash State). not a bad thing just not a Match for California.

So.. I have given it more thought... ths logo does not have to have any Traditional "camp" looks

anything Cutting edge would be cool to look at also. - We do have to market our camping ministry to the Silicon Valley

- thanks

I don't know, I think I made a mess. :) What do you think? Any help you can give me is appreciated.

This is going in a little different direction.

Hey All

-Sorry i've been out of town this week.

Thanks for the work..

Debbie I kinda like what you have done... however, I'd like to put emphasis on the words "Camping & Retreat Ministries"

thanks- erik

[Debbie]

Thank you for the feedback. Since you kind of liked the first one, I altered it to emphasize camping and retreat ministries. If you're still not jazzed by it, I'll start over from scratch.

Debbie..

Sorry it took a while to get back.. I was away with a Sr High group on a snow trip..

I am looking for something more cutting edge.. maybe more equal width & height

Anyone else got some ides?
