Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to our Shore Things logo. Still to come are some variations and modifications for use in different applications (t-shirts, hat, our blog header, &c.).You'll notice how the walker lands on a straight leg, and extends out behind. It is, as we say, "nice form!"
Now I'm going to ask you to help create a slogan for us. Email me your thoughts or add them to the comments. We'll put the best to a vote through a blog poll. Suggestions so far include: "Taking life in stride...", "The journey of a lifetime..." and "Step right up...." Please contribute yours.
This snowy Saturday, the distances are 11K (Chilly) and 8K (ST10). Click on the small image for a printable there-and-back map, combining both distances.
Before you come out, have a look at this article from RunningWorld.com, 10 Tips for Running in the Cold. It all applies just as well to walking. And the first tip is: Get motivated! It also mentions using BodyGlide for exposed skin -- which I intend to try this last walk of January 2009. See you at 8 am.

Helen, It's a beautiful logo! Great colours, a catching look, and 'good form', as they say!
I'm hoping to be out on Monday night; I feel like I haven't seen anyone for ages (I haven't), but we're almost open with our second opera, so I'm hoping things will calm down soon, and I can get out walking with you all again. Wishing everyone a terrific weekend, and hope to be back out next week. Stay warm! Olwyn
Oh, and a catch-phrase might be 'Walk On!' or 'Thither we go'...well, maybe not the last one..!
Here is what I thought of for the slogan:
"Sign me up for footprints, fun and friendship"
Or
"I am a walker. I am invincible."
Here are my suggestions:
Empowering Strides Forward
Empowering Steps Forward
Walking for Health
Best Foot Forward (BFF for short!)
Norma
I will be out on Saturday (barring another big snow!).
Great logo Helen. I know I wouldn't be taking any steps if it wasn't for out group. So I'm thinking of something including the 'together' word. Perhaps
'walking in step together'
'togetherness step by tep'
'togetherness SHORELY'..........
How about:
The Shore Things Walking Club
"Fitness, fun and friendship in the Beach"
I'll be there Saturday, unless something unexpected intervenes. See you then.
So Helen, you're saying 'F' in the Beach'! I think this could work...let's see what others think!
Love the logo Helen
Arlene and I will walk Sunday as I am skiing Saturday. Hope to see you all next Saturday
Libby
Lovely logo, Helen! It has a flowing and graceful look!
Still mulling over slogans.
My favorites so far are "Fitness, fun and friendship in the Beach" (exact summary of who we are)
as well as
"Taking life in stride".
See you all Saturday morning!
Debbie
