The Apache Junction Founders’ Centennial Committee reports that the logo competition, which closed on Dec. 31, is moving forward in identifying the winner in the next 30 days.
Five finalists have been chosen from the entries received by the committee (see logos above), according to a release.
The next step in this process is to submit the logo finalists, chosen by the committee members on Thursday, Jan. 9, to the newly appointed Arts Commission for the final selection.
One winner will be chosen and receive $500, donated by Greg Davis on behalf of the Superstition Mountain Historical Society.
The winning entry will be used to promote the 100th birthday of the founding of Apache Junction throughout the year 2022.
In the months ahead, community members will be able to purchase articles showcasing the winning logo in anticipation of the year-long celebration and to show their support for Apache Junction's diverse and unique heritage, the release states.
The winning logo will be presented to the community at this years’ Apache Junction Lost Dutchman Days Rodeo, which runs from Feb. 28 through March 1.
The much-anticipated award presentation to the winning logo artist/entrant will take place sometime during the weekend festivities. Stay tuned for future dates and times, the release states.
"The Centennial Committee would like to thank all of the entrants for their timely submissions. The committee is inspired by the amount of talent and creativity in and around Apache Junction. The task of choosing just five finalists was intense," the release states.
"We would also like to thank the Chamber of Commerce for assisting with the logo competition, as well as the Arts Commission, the Superstition Mountain Historical Society (Greg Davis) and numerous valley businesses who have already started making commitments to the support of the Centennial Committee and our 2022 endeavors," according to the release.
"A few of the entries provided us the opportunity to make minor edits like color scheme per the artist and for that we are grateful, it allows us to work one on one with the winner in making the best logo to represent the community. If you would like to join the Centennial Committee, we meet the first Thursday of every month at 6 p.m. at the Apache Junction Public Library," according to the release.
