BSA 100th Anniversary Celebration Logo Contest

Calling all Scouts to a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be part of BSA history in the making by participating in the BSA 100th Anniversary Celebration National Logo Contest!

In honor of BSA’s 100th anniversary, the National Council has launched a contest to inspire the very best design for the anniversary celebration logo. Every registered Scout is eligible to participate. The winning design will become the official symbol for this very important BSA milestone. It will be placed on all official celebration materials and will become a treasured BSA icon for generations to come.

As a leader, you are asked to engage your Scouts in this project. Every logo contest entrant will receive a commemorative certificate and patch from the National Council recognizing their effort.

Tell the Scouts in your unit:

• about the 100th anniversary
• how they can participate in the logo design contest
• and how easy it is to get involved!

A distinguished panel of judges will select winners in several categories, including an overall winner and best design by a Tiger Cub/Cub Scout,/Webelos Scout, Boy Scout, Eagle Scout, and Venturer. The winner in each category will receive a trip, along with an adult guardian, to a May 2008 recognition ceremony at the BSA National Annual Meeting in San Diego, Calif. In addition, the overall winner will also receive a trip, along with an adult guardian, to work hand-in-hand with renowned graphic artist and Eagle Scout Kit Hinrichs in his San Francisco studio to finalize the logo for use throughout the celebration.

This is a great activity for individual Scouts and for den, pack, patrol, troop, and crew meetings since entries can be submitted by individuals and by groups! Entry forms, rules and details can be found on the BSA 100th Anniversary Web site.

So encourage your Scouts to rev up their creative juices and submit their design ideas! Deadline for entries is November 30, 2007.
