THE LOGO ENTRIES

Call to entries on the 17 May 2021 were published on social media platforms and shared via personal WhatsApp message to every one we knew, with no existing support base we needed to rely on friends, family and colleagues to share the message as widely as they could.

A total of 21 entries were submitted to a 9 person judging panel who voted for their top 10 and a winner emerged. The Entrants were a diverse group of people who’s main criteria was that they believed this goal of Blue Flag status is attainable by 2030. Submissions included sketches, paintings, graphic images and logos each representing the abilities and vision of the creating artist.

The top 10 Nominees were informed on the 9 June and the winners announced at the Rethinking Plastic presentation at the HBYC. All entries were on display and spot prizes were awarded and every entrant received a token of gratitude for taking part.

The first prize winner received R1000, R1000 was shared to the remaining top 10 nominees.

The top 3 submitted works of art Have been combined to create our new identity. Collaboration, Inclusivity, Sustainability are the core values of Blue Bay 2030 and the competition supported this vision.
