Days is currently seeking designs for the circular “button
logo” for the 2008 festival. The logo that is selected
will be reproduced in a variety of ways, including on t-shirts
and commemorative steins.
The logo contest is open to both professional
and amateur artists. It is likely that sketches and logo ideas
submitted by amateurs will be used in developing a concept,
but from these ideas Cheese Days reserves
the right to have a final design professionally produced in
a scaleable format acceptable for multiple applications, including
print, screen-print, embroidery, and signs. Designs submitted
in full-color may be simplified to spot color only.
Festival organizers are looking for a design
to creatively showcase the traditions of cheesemaking, dairy
farming, and Swiss heritage. Designs in the past have featured
cheese, alphorns, Swiss shields and flags,
and dairy cattle. To view previous button logos beginning
with the button dating back to the second festival held in
1915, visit the history page.
Designs must include the words “Green
County Cheese Days,” and “Monroe, Wisconsin”
and also should include the dates of the festival –
September 19 – 21, 2008. The words September and Wisconsin
can be abbreviated.
Designs and design ideas should be submitted
by mail to Jim Bruce, 1016 N. Second St., Monroe, WI 53566,
or by email to cabletvguy@charter.net. Acceptable submissions
include electronic files burned to cd, final designs on paper,
and concept sketches. Contact Jim Bruce at 608.329.4009
