T-Shirt Design Contest - Submit Your Design by March 31

The 2nd Annual JDRF West Michigan T-Shirt Design Contest is officially underway! It's time to come up with a great idea for our team shirts for 2009...we know you all have great ideas floating around out there--let's see what you've got!

The guidelines:

• Must fit on an 8.5"X11" sheet of paper (front of shirt only)
• No more than 2 ink colors (plus color of shirt)
• If possible, have darker ink colors on lighter shirt colors
• Should have the team name JDRF West Michigan somewhere
• Should have the JDRF ride logo somewhere. Placing it on the sleeve is possible, but note that it will increase the cost to the team a bit per shirt

Designs are subject to minor revision by the ride committee, graphic designer, or shirt printer if deemed necessary.

Please submit all designs to Nicole Nelles by Tuesday, March 31. You may draw a design and scan it (or meet up with Nicole and she can scan it for you), or create in a computer design program. .jpg, .pdf, and .pub are preferred file formats, but we can work with whatever you have. Your design doesn't have to be perfect-the graphic designer can 'clean it up' later. We are just looking for awesome concepts that capture who this team is, where we're going, and maybe even why we're doing this. After all submissions are collected, you will have the opportunity to view them all on the Blog and vote for your favorite. Good luck!
