Photo: The 16th Annual Evening of Shorts. A clothesline set against a brilliant blue sky. Pinned to
the clothesline is a white tee shirt, and a pair of brown shorts with human legs hanging out of them.
A small black bird sits on the line just to the left of the shorts. The artist of the logo, "Bre", created our
logo in 2004. Her signature appears across the bottom of the white tee.
