The Symbolic Emblem Salon is a judged exhibition of
symbolic emblems (logos, patches, decals, pins, etc.) related to caves or
caving. All symbolic emblem designs must be representative of a caving-related
or karst-related organization (such as a caving club, grotto, section, or
conservancy) or of a caving-related or karst-related event (such as a caving
club event, grotto event, section gathering, meeting, conference, or
convention). The Salon Chair will decide if a proposed entry fits the
description of a symbolic emblem and is accepted for judging. This year there
will be two categories, Emblems and Posters. Items that will be accepted in the
Emblems category include patches, pins, stickers, mugs, key-chains, coins and
other traditional display items for logos. Items that will be accepted in the
Posters category include posters, postcards, brochures and other paper media.
Items
that the Salon Chair determines to not meet the criteria for either of these
categories will not be judged, but may be accepted for display in a nearby
area. If in doubt, please contact the Salon Chair in advance to discuss your
proposed entry.
All entries must be mailed to Dave Decker (5117 Fairfax Dr.
NW, Albuquerque, NM 87114, USA) to arrive one week prior to the beginning of
the convention (29 JULY, 2013). This
is to allow time for presentation set up and documentation. Items that arrive
after that date, or are delivered at convention will not be accepted for the
current year’s competition, but will
be automatically entered in the following year’s competition. For each entry,
complete and print the entry form or contact Dave to obtain entry forms via
post. Entry forms will
be available for completion in the display area for items submitted for the
following year’s competition. Entries will be considered to have been donated
to the NSS unless otherwise specified when submitted.
The entry fee is $3.00 for the entrant's first entry
and $1.00 for each additional entry. Cash is preferred; checks should be
payable to “National Speleological Society.” T-shirt Salon entry fees are
separate from the Symbolic Emblem Salon
entry fees.
All entrants retain copyright and all moral and
intellectual rights to their work. Credit will be included with all objects
displayed.
If you have questions, send e-mail to emblemsa...@caves.org.
