subject: [Paddlewise] Logo ??
Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2000 15:26:10 -0400
A few weeks (months) ago we had some discussions about logos for
Paddlewise.  I believe some designs were submitted  but the choice of an
"official" Paddlewise logo was tabled to a later time.  

In about one month, several paddlewisers will be coming to the NYC area to
meet and paddle and I'd like to consider getting myself a paddlewise
looking t shirt.  So, my question is:  What does the official Paddlewise
logo look like?

See http://www.paddlewise.net/logos/

The various paddles are to indicate all types of paddling, the color
emphasizes safety and the arrangement of the paddles represents a
compass to signify skill.  I need to add the usual disclaimer and will
in a couple of days.

Cheers,

Jackie

Jackie,

Looks great!!!  

Also I like the colors since I have an orange boat with black trim.

Cool - I like it!  The full-sized version makes for a real obnoxious
wallpaper on my desk top.

See, I had a plan.... I figured folks could leave it up on their computers
and throw those suction cup darts at it during lunch hour with extra points
if you hit the greenland paddle or mucho points if you dot (dart) the "i" 
in Wise. :-)  

Cheers,

Jackie

What do we win if we do?  I should mention that I've played a lot of real
darts competively and once, during a playoff match in one of the leagues I
played in I three my three darts in the double-bullseye (the smallest
target on a dartboard).  That had only been done once before in the history
of the league.

Bill - If you're going to order a t-shirt, maybe several of us could
order together - I don't know if there'd be any kind of economy of scale,
since I don't think there are that many of us), but it might be easier to
get someone to make up a bunch of them rather than one.

Incidentally - anyone who's interested in getting together in NY over
Memorial Day, please contact me or Ralph - or the list - so we have some
idea of who we should be looking out for.

You should probably contact Joan as I will be away for about 3 weeks
prior to that weekend and out of email contact.

We can repost the details if anyone wants.  Basically it is three days
of paddling.  Saturday to the Statue of Liberty (some side trips and a
nite paddle possible) and dinner that night followed stayover at my
place for out of towners (including tenting on the roof of a brownstone
high above the muggers :-)).  Sunday paddling around West Point and the
Hudson Highlands (this is where the Hudson River resembles a fiord with
1,000 ft hills on both sides; the place has geographical and historical
significance as well) followed by barbeque at the Volins and sleepover
there for out of towners.  Monday is paddling around City Island and
some lighthouses (this is the western end of Long Island Sound and the
backdoor marine access to NYC) plus dinner at a seafood restaurant for
those who can linger.

We also have storage of kayaks well covered.  I have been asked for
recommendations on places to stay.  I suggest getting info from AAA.
There are cheaper hotels in NYC.  There is one right on Chambers St not
far from the Downtown Boathouse (it is where some of the outrigger
racers stay), but I forget its name.  It might be a possibility.  I
won't have much time to help as I indicated above but do feel free to
call me through about May 2nd to ask questions about this.

As for T-shirts and logos, we could probably coordinate purchase of
these and make them available for the Paddlewiser Mingle that weekend. 
I hope someone can take the lead on this, order up a bunch, sell them
for a few bucks above costs to cover any shortfall in sales and, if a
"profit" is made, donate it to the Downtown Boathouse and it free public
kayak program.

Boat storage for those who stay at our house is essentially leaving it on
top of the car.  Nice quiet suburban neighborhood - we've left ours out
overnight many times.>

If someone can handle t-shirts, please let Bill Leonhart know - he's
going to try to coordinate it, but he's not sure he has the time.  It
would be great to have the t-shirts, both to identify ourselves to each
other and the rest of the world, and as a remembrance of a great weekend.

Hey I just noticed a similarity between the PW logo and the logo of the
Northeast Paddlers Message Board at www.npmb.com .  At least as far as the
circular layout, lettering arrangement and the multiple paddles.  Is that
just a coincidence?

I disagree they are that similar.  "Just a coincidence"?  Do you mean 
was I aware of that logo?  No.  Circular logos with lettering
around the perimeter are not uncommon. The use of a variety of paddles 
to indicate different types of paddling is obviously a no-brainer 8-} 
(the quantity and style of paddles differ).  I will not be surprised to 
find if there will be more logos out there with a somewhat similar idea 
(though I am unaware of them at this time).

btw, since folks here expressed the desire to use the logos as a means
of identifying each other, I left an empty area around the bottom half of 
the circle so folks could use the area to write in their names on stickers
if they so desire... another no-brainer :-)

Cheers,

Jackie
