PATCH DESIGN INSTRUCTIONS

2009-2010

 

 

Please make sure everyone in your tribe receives this information.

 

The designing of patches for the next year’s events is open to all new and returning members of the Papoose, Guides and Princess Nations.  This contest is not open to Trail Nation members. 

 

Please follow these guidelines regarding your entries:

 

  1. One event per sheet of paper (prefer 8 ½ x 11)

 

  1. On the back of the sheet
    1. Name of the event the design is for
    2. Name of your Nation and Tribe
    3. The Child’s and Dad’s Name (Given Name & Indian Name)
    4. The Child’s Grade Level

 

  1. No computer aided designs.  Your child must draw/color it.  Drawings need to be camera ready, completely colored and ready to go.  Markers and map pencils work better than crayons.

 

  1. Drawing can be any size (prefer to fill the page or 2-3 times larger than the actual patch will be).  The patch company will adjust the graphic to fit the final patch sizes.

 

  1. Drawing can have any outer shape desired.  Shape is not restricted to circle, square, etc…

 

  1. Tribal Chiefs are responsible for bringing drawings to the August Longhouse.

 

  1. Please include the season and year somewhere on the patch (e.g. “Spring 2009”).

 

  1. Any program child can design a patch for events that involve all Nations.  Only papoose can submit and vote on exclusive Papoose Nation events, only little braves can submit and vote on exclusive Guides Nation events, and only princesses can submit and vote on exclusive Princess Nation events (see table below).
