Our logo was inspired by Cassie Cox, the Outdoor Education Specialist at Texas Outdoor Family. Thank you, Cassie! The helpful staff at Logic Designs and North Texas Graphics have generously donated their time and supplies to turn Cassie's creation into digital logos for our project! Thank you Logic Designs & North Texas Graphics!
