Should we give them more feedback about what kind of sports we are planning to have? I only see 2 that have tri like logos and a handful with running. It would be nice to see something that incorporates trails or the outdoors for the hiking/ultra aspect.

For all logos, need to give more equal weight to No Boundaries and Multisport. Both are important - No Boundaries for unique brand and Multisport to quickly let people know what we do. Atlanta can be played down as most have done.

Has no one considered a crayon drawn outside the lines to represent No Boundaries? Maybe a crayon stroke that represents a road or trail or one the key letters.

#32 Graphic alludes to 3 sports while look could be leaves representing outdoors - excellent. More equal weight to No Boundaries & Multisport though.

#25 mountain theme not bad - but hills with trail/road would be better for Georgia given our lack of dramatic mountain peaks

I think Brian is right on. Can they see what we write here or do we need to comment on their design to give them feedback? I hadn't thought about the word weighting but we do need to get the Multisport on equal weight with the No Boundaries and keep the Atlanta small. I really like the drawing outside the box idea if we can encourage that in the designs. I'm not a fan of showing the sports. I think it clutters the design and it will always show less sports than we plan on doing. I'm gravitating more toward something that uses the fonts, letters and lines to make a clean logo out of the name but that's just me.

I'm still a little unsure how to redirect the designers. I think we have some pretty good people here and I'd to tweak a few based on Brian's comments. I clicked on the individual deign but I never got a text box to allow me to leave a comment. Do I need to do it here by using the pound sign and number?
