STAFF REPORT TO:Parks & Recreation Commission FROM:Bryce Shearen, CPRE, Parks & Recreation/Community Services Director DATE:September 7, 2023 RE:Park Logos ACTION REQUESTED A motion to approve the park logo designs as the new official Park Logos, or to make final edits to the proposed designs. BACKGROUND In 2022, the Parks & Recreation Commission discussed creating individual park logos that could be used for multiple different purposes to help increase the identity of the Little Canada parks system. A few ideas that were discussed that these images could be used for were park wayfinding signage, stickers, creating a park passport, geocaching, and possibly other branded items. They could also be included in the newsletter, social media, and website communications to help identify each park. There were a few draft concept designs presented to the Commission to gauge the interest to see if this was something of interest. There was support from the Parks & Recreation Commission to move forward with creating park logos. Staff worked with a graphic designer to have logos created for the following parks: Fire Barns Skate Park Firefighters Historical Trail Gervais Mill Park Nadeau Wildlife Area Pioneer Park Rondeau Park Spooner Park Thunder Bay Park Veterans Memorial Park Attached are the updated designs that were edited with the feedback from the Parks & Recreation Commission members at the June 2023 Parks & Recreation Commission meeting. Staff would like feedback on Pioneer Park’s Logo, and whether to wait for the completion of the new Pioneer Park playground or if the commission likes the proposed design. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Commission discuss the park logos that have been provided and if the Commissioners would like to see any changes to the designs or if Commissioners would like to move forward with approving the designs.
