The ballots for a new club logo have produced a winner:
In democratic fashion, the majority of our members present at the last meeting, have selected the colorful bridge motif from among six logo choices.
I think this logo makes apparent part of the mission of our association:
To foster a cultural exchange between two countries.
A bridge is a powerful symbol that connects and transcends and patches where there is a gap. I hope that our bridge is on a strong footing and proves to be a dependable and lasting pathway of friendship, engagement and support for our members and the community in which we live.
