Cherry City Swing

Describe your company and organization and target audience

This is a non-profit dance club looking to promote and grow the swing dance community in the Salem Oregon area. Mostly West Coast Swing style so need dancers to look more that style than Lindy Hop or East Coast Swing. Salem is the capital city of Oregon and is commonly call the cherry city due to its beautiful pink cherry blossoms around the state capital in April and the production of cherries in the area during the summer.
There are similar clubs in the area in Oregon cities like Portland, Eugene, Corvallis, Ashland and Bend. Vancouver WA also has a club. This should give you an idea of what the club is looking to emulate.

The design should have the following

A COUPLE DANCING since swing dance is a partner dance. The words Cherry City Swing. Possibly a couple cherries together. Cherries are usually bright red. Could have an outline of the state capitol building. Would like elegant design that could be put on a T-shirt. Most likely Black or white would be the best color for the T-shirt.

This logo will be used for

  • Online (Website, facebook etc.)
  • Print (business cards, letterheads, brochures etc.)
  • Merchandise (mugs, t-shirts etc.)

This design should not have this in the entries

Should not be limited to just the name of the club and its initials

What style of logo would you like?

Colors to use in the design

Red and black as primary. Gray or fall colors like a gold or yellow as possible secondary. The bright red of a fall maple leaf or the yellow gold of a fall maple combo could be a possibility.
