We are very pleased to release our new logo.
We enlisted a graphic artist, James Francis, who we thought would have a great feel for the heritage of Maine, its sporting camps and outdoor traditions. James is a freelance artist and is also Director of Culture and Historical Preservation for the Penobscot Indian Nation. He was just right for the task.
His creation, that you can now see at right and at the top of this website, combines elements common to Maine’s traditional sporting camps – the cabins, the lake and the scenery – into a traditional emblem style, but leaves out the usual outer border to allow for a more natural and expansive appearance. You might spot the mighty white pine tree – our official State tree – that towers over all else.
James is a fabulous artist, holds a BA in History and is about complete on his Master of Arts in Fine Art at the University of Maine. He is also an excellent teller of Penobscot legends. He may be found at the Penobscot Nation’s Cultural Center on Indian Island in Old Town, Maine.
