Ford's Colony Race Shirts

We got a near-final proof on the Ford's Colony shirts for the 2009 event. In the first year of a race it is pretty easy to slap the race logo on the shirt and move ahead. In year two, it takes a bit more creativity, trying to come up with something different that still reflects the actual event. Below is what we came up with. Click to see a larger version.
I tried to capture various elements from the race. You will see the race logo, the brochure cover girl, the bird from the Ford's Colony logo, a golfer, and even the gazebo at Ford's Colony. It is never easy to create a shirt that everyone will like. Trying to find something that men, women, and kids all find appealing is tougher than you might think (take the Sweetheart 5k shirt for example). Hopefully this one will have some mass appeal.
