Blank Woodcraft Folk logos for colouring in

There are three PDF files attached.

The first is an A4 sheet with an outline version of the Woodcraft Folk logo for you to print out (and maybe blow up on a photocopier). This is particularly useful for Woodchips and younger Elfins who are more confident colouring in than creating their own version of the logo on a blank piece of paper.

The second is similar but has slightly simpler simpler new style outline. 

The third is a sheet of 15 versions of the Woodcraft and DF logos which can be printed onto labels for colouring in.

Publicity Guidance

There are lots of ways to publicise your group. Here are some of the techniques we know work.
