Adfed’s Back!

Posted by admin on August 11, 2009

We’re so in love with the new Taco Boy downtown, that we decided to host our First Annual Membership Drive there on Tuesday, August 25. Come hang out with us from 5:30 to 7:30 that night for some cocktails and stellar company: if you pay your member dues that night, you’ll get a handy wrist band and can enjoy some libations on us, and if you aren’t sure you’re ready to make the leap to official member, you can give us $15 and in return, we’ll give you a wrist band to drink on our tab AND talk your ear off about how great we are (you’ll want to join before you leave). See our updated member packages.

There’s More!

We’ve decided to throw a bone to our friends at the national level and rename ourselves AAF-Charleston in accordance with their numerous, very polite requests. Since we’re getting this nifty new name, we’d like to give you a shot at updating our look as well. As such, we are hosting a logo contest beginning now and running thru September 8. No, it’s not much time, and offering your creative genius to us for free may not be your cup of tea. However, if you’re in a slow phase at work, or stuck in a quagmire of non-brilliance with whatever you’re working on now, this could be just what you need to fill the empty hours and get the creative juices flowing.

Here’s the fine print, if you’re so inclined to give some thought to our look:

• logo must include the words AAF – Charleston
• look can be entirely new, or include the current Adfed colors or icon (the fabulous head with flowers of genius sprouting from it).
• submit a pdf of your final design to info@adfedcharleston.com by 12 pm on Tuesday, September 8. We’ll post all on entries on the web and have a week of unbridled critique, competition and discussion.
• the winning design and designer will be revealed and generally treated like a rock star at our first evening program on Thursday, September 18.

And That’s It for Now!

We have some new and exciting plans to tell you about, but we’ll get to that soon. In the mean time, come join us for our member drive at Taco Boy on the 25th, apply your brain to designing a logo for us, and plan to join us over the next year for one of the best Adfed seasons yet.”
