Our name is officially changing back to Service Unit! That means we need a new logo.
If you are artistically inclined, we invite you to submit a logo. The selected logo will become our Facebook profile photo, replace the trefoil image in the browser tab, and appear elsewhere on the site. Additionally, the image may be re-printed on items such as T-Shirts.
The girl who submits the selected logo will receive a free community T-Shirt and $10 camp credit to be applied towards a SU 416 Camporee.
All logos must abide by the following rules:
- Include all parts of our official name:
- Girl Scouts in the Heart of Pennsylvania (can be abbreviated to GSHPA)
- Service Unit 416 (can be abbreviated to SU 416)
- State College
- Be submitted as a high-resolution (at least 300 dpi for print quality) electronic image file saved in TIFF, JPEG, AI (Illustrator), or PSD (Photoshop) format, but must also look good as a 200 x 200 pixel thumbnail (ask an art or computer teacher for help if needed).
- Be created by a girl member of Service Unit 416 – name file with the name and troop number (00416 for Juliettes) of the girl artist. Girls may seek technical help and advice from adult mentors, but the actual artistic work must be the sole original creation of the girl member. Girls may incorporate traditional Girl Scout symbols and logos such as the trefoil into their design, but must not include any other copyrighted or stock material (clip art, photographs, etc).
- Do NOT include any girl names or troop numbers.
- Do NOT include any identifiable photograph of a person. We strongly advise against any photographs as they will not render well at very low resolution.
- Abide by the spirit of the Girl Scout Law.
When creating your design, keep in mind that a successful logo is simple and clean. It needs to look good printed full size on a T-Shirt as well as when scaled down to a 200 x 200 pixel thumbnail and even the 24 px box on a browser tab (shortcut icon). We do not require your design to be square; however, all thumbnails are square. If your image is not square, we will have to either crop it or scale it to create the thumbnail and shortcut icon.
Send your submission via email to info@statecollegegirlscouts.org. Be sure to include the name, troop number (00416 for Juliettes), and contact information of the girl artist in the body of the email.
Submitting an image to us in this manner automatically releases the copyright to State College Girl Scouts and gives GSHPA SU 416 unlimited rights to publish, reproduce, and modify the image however we see fit.
