I am still nailing down the text to include, but my thought process here was to have an emblem for the event to sit alongside your official logo: #9. Thus, why I left out the NCAC part. However, I am also working on a version that includes "NCAC" & "2013" as well. I should have that done soon, but I wanted to get your take on this idea. The graphic includes a rocky mountain top, as well as a stylized/fun sound wave to further reflect what you do.
And here is that other version with the full text spelled out: #21
I also made it more obvious that it was mountains in the background, as well as switched up the colors a bit while still maintaining your deep red tone.
