The Foothills Rails-to-Trails Coalition is running a contest for artists who want to help us create a mascot and related graphics for the coalition. We are looking for ideas that could be used on our websites, shirts, stickers, and other giveaways. It is meant to be a fun graphic, appealing to both kids and adults, to be used in addition to our official logo.
Sasquatch is an unofficial mascot of the coalition. He is known to make appearances at our events—including our annual Rainier to Ruston race as shown in the pictures below. Designs related to our furry friend would be a welcome option.
However, other ideas related to our mission and history, are fair game as well. Many of our trails are built on former railroad beds. They are used by bikers, walkers, runners, horse riders. See our website for more information about our history and plans
