Resumen de Diseño de Logo
The Long Pond Hornbeams are a founding member of the Firewagon Hockey League (FHL). The FHL is entering its 10th year, and the Hornbeams have had considerable success, winning 2 championships and tying for a third. We are looking to update the teams image.
Long Pond is in Windsor, Nova Scotia, Canada and considered to be the birthplace of hockey. References to Long Pond are found in the writings of Thomas Chandler Haliburton.
When hockey was first played, one-piece sticks were fashioned from hornbeam trees (also called ironwood trees) growing on hillsides. They were suitable because of the strength of the wood, and the angled root or base was perfect for a blade.
Our current logo shows hockey sticks notionally coming from a tree, meant to be a hornbeam tree.
The colors have been navy blue and sand yellow, but i think its time to introduce another accent color. [note: the current logo attached is too dark, almost black - it should be navy blue]
The logo should include the words Long Pond Hornbeams. Optional wording would be est. 2005
Google "hornbeam leaf" to see the distinctive shape of the hornbeam leaf and its jagged edges
Google "european hornbeam tree" to see the proper shape of a hornbeam tree
Go to http://www.birthplaceofhockey.com/ for more information about Long Pond and the history of hockey in Windsor, Nova Scotia, Canada.
The logo should tend towards the traditional rather than modern. See the attached picture for the Starr skate company in Nova Scotia in the early days of hockey for a feel.
See also the picture attached of an old one-piece hockey stick. Notice the grain of wood following the blade and shaft of the stick. Notice also that old sticks had a different look and shape than hockey sticks of today. We would like to capture the old rather than the new.
We considered the idea of having three trees (one being smaller than the other two) representing the two championships and one tie. Its an idea we like, but it would depend on how its presented. It is not a requirement.
See the fonts we are aiming for in the attached file showing the words LONG POND HORNBEAMS in Gin, Bourbon, Prohibition and Abolition font. I am NOT asking you to buy a font - I just want to show you fonts we like - edgy, vertical, strong and readable.
Actualizaciones
As a companion to the updated logo, please present the word marks HORNBEAM HOCKEY and HORNBEAM ALERT! in the same font.
We would use HORNBEAM HOCKEY on a t-shirt with the logo.
Whenever there is important news about the team, we send out a HORNBEAM ALERT!

Regarding colors, one idea we have is to add a second tone of blue and a second tone of sand/brown.

For inspiration, I found a new hockey logo that meshes some elements of the current Hornbeam logo and has 2 shades of green and 2 shades of grey. The Cedar Rapids Roughriders just released this logo for the coming season.
I really like the font they use. One criticism I would have of the current Hornbeam logo is the font - its a bit cheap western. For other fonts I like, see Gin, Bourbon and Prohibition on myfonts.com
