I like 'em; they're much cleaner than the logo shown in the information presentation: .

I would certainly hope that the Steering Committee would be open to possible logo alternatives.

And that's even ignoring the fact that the one from the presentation is actually in violation of the FIRST Brand Standards.

Though, it's not much different from the FIM logo.

Actually, it looks like the PNW logo also goes against the FIRST Branding and Design Standards by putting the FIRST logo on top of graphic shapes, and the Indiana logo may also violate them by altering the triangle in the logo. Additionally, it looks like the New England logo might be in violation for improper alignment of the name "FIRST" and the FIRST logo.

The only district logo that does not seem to go against the Branding and Design Standards is the MAR logo, which does not use the name "FIRST" or the FIRST logo anywhere at all.

The PNW logo doesn't violate it because there are far fewer restrictions on the wordmark part of the logo as there are of the icon.

Indiana might also get away with it because by changing the triangle it is actually no longer the FIRST logo.

However, anything that uses one or the other is technically a violation too.

Should have called it "FIRST District in Chesapeake", then you could all put:

"Member FDIC" after your team number.

Right? FIRST Chesapeake sounds like a company name and not a description of a region. I get what they were going for, I just think they missed the mark a bit.

I still think FAMED (FIRST Atlantic Mid-East District) was the way to go.

We have FIM, MAR, NE, PNW and IN as our current districts with GA, NC and "FIRST Chesapeake" coming next year. Kind of a mouthful, what acronym are we going to use for the Chesapeake district area?

Washington FIRST Robotics isn't really using its name anymore, right? We could use that.

The abbreviation for FIRST Chesapeake is 'CHE'.
