Crest Design Contest

Camporee crests are designed and voted upon by participants - both adults and youth.

Contest Rules

Submissions are due on or before NOVEMBER 21st.

• More than one member of a section may submit a design, but only 1 submission per designer, please.

• We are looking for the crest design to exemplify the winning theme: Time Travel. The winning crest design will be digitally re-drawn before it is submitted for production.

• The text "Carleton Camporee", "2027", and the name of the theme, Time Travel, are required on the final crest, so please include them in your submitted design. If you don't include the text on your artwork when you submit, just remember that your artwork may need to be slightly altered to make room for the required text when the design is finalized.

• Please do not include copyrighted characters in your design (e.g. characters from movies).  

Designs will be reviewed by the key team for conforming to the rules before polling begins.  The key team reserves the right to not include designs in the poll.
