WESTVILLE, NS (Canada)
Design 4C
Pickaxes in fimbriated, sloped Canadian pale
A combination of Designs 4A and 4B, and then some with the fimbriation. This was the sporty look I was ultimately after, with the fimbriation acting like stripes so often seen in sport uniforms and logos. The axes could be smaller, though, to leave a bit more blue space and visually separate them from the fimbriation. Next round.

REFERENCE
Westville is an inland bedroom community of about 3,500 people in Pictou County, Nova Scotia, that has a proud and sometimes tragic mining past that ended in the 1990s. There once was three underground mines, and an explosion in 1873 killed 70 miners, for whom there is a memorial. Another prominent memorial in town is the cenotaph. Like many mining towns, Westville once had some prominent amateur sport teams in baseball, cricket, hockey, and football. However, today, there is only a recreational sport scene there. The town’s colours are a deep blue, white, and black, and is on everything from the website to the former high school and current minor hockey league team. Miners and mining are definitely Westville’s identity, with their website pointing out on its home page how this small town with a big heart needs to honour its past so as to have a future. The town has no logo, a very crudely drawn seal of two men working in the mines, and practically no branding aside from the colour scheme mentioned.
