Camp Crest Content

  • This year we will be having a camp crest contest.  This is open to all Sparks attending camp!  Have your sparks design a crest to go along with this years theme: Sparks Great Treasure Hunt and one will be picked and created into our camp crest. All submissions for the crest design should be submitted with your completed application package.

Helpful Tips:

  • Colour is good, however sometime the fewer distinct colours the better
  • Ensure the crest designs are not too small, a full or half sheet of regular 8 x 10 paper can be used, the design can be shrunk to fit the crest size.  You can outline a shape (circle, square, triangle) for the girls to draw their creations in.
  • We will add the camp name, date and guiding symbol, so if it does not come in the design no worries
