Announcement

Logo Contest

The Northern Waters Youth Network will be offering 2 annual events beginning February 2012. These events will be known as Wave events. We hope having a set date each year will assist youth groups and their leaders in their planning. The presbytery will host a weekend event the first weekend in February (to coordinate with Worshiplude timelines in Ottawa Presbytery) and a one day event the Saturday before Halloween every year. These events are typically organized for youth in gr 7 through the end of high school although sometimes, these criteria will change.

To kick things off, we are holding a Logo Contest. Submissions for logos must include the name "Wave" in the design. Submissions are due to kperry@united-church.ca by March 31, 2012. You can also drop them off or mail them to the presbytery office.

For inspiration, please download the following poster:
