SEOPA Logo Search Extended

The Southeastern Outdoor Press Association (SEOPA) has extended the search for a new logo. Entries will continue to be accepted through July 1. The artist or designer submitting the winning work-for-hire entry will receive a $750 cash award. Entries should be submitted electronically in the form of a high-resolution color .jpg, .tif, .gif or .bmp file to lisa@seopa.org. All entries must be received by close of business on Wednesday, July 1. Each designer, including those who sent entries previously, may submit up to five logos. Each file name should begin with the artist’s last name. Please request e-mail confirmation that your entry is received, and call 704-984-4700 if you do receive a reply within two business days.

“We received dozens of attractive logos as a result of the initial announcement, but our board of directors thinks offering artists more time to consider our needs may result in that one special design that says it all,” said Lisa Snuggs, SEOPA’s executive director.

Snuggs said the new logo should represent the core reason for SEOPA’s existence – to bring together outdoor communicators and corporate business partners in the furtherance of traditional outdoor sports like fishing, hunting, camping and boating. Artists can view the current SEOPA logo at www.SEOPA.org. SEOPA is the largest regional outdoor writer’s group in the United States. The 14 states where the majority of SEOPA’s members reside are Florida, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri and Texas.
