2007 CAMP CARNIVAL LOGO DESIGN CONTEST
DEADLINE: FRIDAY 31ST AUGUST, 2007 @ 6:00PM
CAMP CARNIVAL is in need of a logo and we are calling on the creative student community to come up with the design. Put your originality and artistic skills to the test and send us a logo design that we can use on all CAMP CARNIVAL materials including the website, letterheads, promotional material, banners…and anywhere else the name might appear!
The Toronto Carnival (Caribana) has been described as “a kaleidoscope of music, colourful costumes, theatrical mas band displays, [and] steel bands beating intricate orchestrations.” CAMP CARNIVAL aims to educate youth on those elements iconic to Caribana: ‘mas’ (masquerade) costume performance, Caribbean popular music and steelpan performance. Therefore, the ideal logo will reflect on these elements.
To gain information and inspiration, students are encouraged to visit the following websites for more details on the Toronto Carnival (Caribana):

In addition to the honour of having your very own design symbolically represent CAMP CARNIVAL, the winner will be awarded a $100 Scarborough Town Centre gift card.
