RDP unveils ‘bold’ new logo for Kings and Queens athletics
Bold, modern and fierce were words used to describe the new logo, unveiled Thursday, for Red Deer Polytechnic’s 15 athletics teams.
The change comes as the institution recently became a polytechnic, transitioning from a college to one with more degrees, and a new vision for the future.
Officials with RDP say the crown — as well as those descriptors — was identified most often during consultations, which included two virtual sessions and an online survey.
“Our student-athletes, coaches, donors, sponsors, alumni, Athletics stakeholders, and central Albertans expressed their affinity for the Kings and Queens to continue wearing the crown as a way of honouring the legacy of excellence within Red Deer Polytechnic Athletics,” says Jim Brinkhurst, Interim President, Red Deer Polytechnic.
