| Green County Cheese
Days is currently seeking designs for the circular “button
logo” for the 2012 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. Sketches and logo ideas submitted by amateurs may
be used in developing a concept, but from these ideas Cheese
Days reserves the right to have a final design professionally
produced in a format acceptable for multiple applications,
including print, screen-print, and large signs. Designs submitted
in full-color may also be simplified.
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
on the Cheese Days web site www.cheesedays.com.
Designs must include the words “Green County Cheese
Days,” and “Monroe, Wisconsin” and also
should include the dates of the festival, September 14 –
16, 2012. The words September and Wisconsin can be abbreviated.
Designs and design ideas can be submitted by mail to Jim Bruce,
1016 N. Second St., Monroe, WI 53566, OR by email to radioguy1@charter.net.
Acceptable submission formats include electronic files, final
designs on paper, and concept sketches. Contact Jim Bruce
at 608.329.4009 with questions. Designs are due by April 15,
2011.
