Suffield Chamber of Commerce Holding Logo Design Contest

The Chamber is looking for a new logo to coincide with a planned re-design of its web site.

The Suffield Chamber of Commerce is looking to have a new logo designed, and is asking for help from the community.

In conjunction with a web site re-design initiative, the Chamber's technology committee is sponsoring a logo design contest open to both Chamber and community members.

The contest began Tuesday and runs through Friday, March 22. Submissions with a scanned-in attached concept sketch or a completed logo design file may be emailed to info@suffieldchamber.com.

A Business After Hours event will be held at the Kent Memorial Library on Tuesday, March 26 at 5:30 p.m. The submitted logos will be on display at that time, and visitors may cast a vote for their favorite.

The Chamber board of directors will also be reviewing the submissions before a final choice is made. The winning logo and its designer will be recognized with publicity on the Chamber web site, Facebook page and newsletter, as well as here on Suffield Patch.

For further information and contest updates, visit the Suffield Chamber Facebook page.

The problem is resurfacing all the roads in Suffield would cost a great deal of money. Suffield is aRead More big town. I do understand that some roads in Suffield do not have enough adjacent suitable land to create a separate bike lane, but I believe bike lanes could be constructed along sections of some scenic roads. Half a loaf is better than none at all. Salvatore, if you have not already been there, you may want to consider cycling on the island of Nantucket. I have not been there in years, but outside of its main town, Nantucket did offer good riding conditions and peaceful surroundings--at least when I visited.

Thank you for your comment. Actually, I was simply suggesting that roads are resurfaced. There isn'tRead More probably enough room for bike lanes on most of these backroads, but if at least the pavement was brought to an acceptable condition, that would make biking much more pleasant (I should say "possible") and, let's not forget, much safer. Some particularly damaged areas represent a serious danger to bikers' safety.

There may be a solution--a compromise of sorts. Put a narrow, but well-maintained bike lane on largeRead More sections of each scenic road in town, the roads with fewer cars and trucks. Just having the bike lanes may be draw for out-of-town cyclists to visit Suffield and spend money at local businesses. Instead of attempting to change Suffield into a metropolitan area, with all the problems that brings, celebrate (and financially support) its original identity--a scenic, peaceful agricultural town with some nice amenities.
