Leamington Invites Community to Help Choose the Official 150th Anniversary Logo

The Municipality of Leamington is gearing up for a grand celebration of its 150th anniversary, a milestone that stands as a testament to our community's enduring spirit and rich heritage. To embody the essence of community and togetherness, we are thrilled to involve our residents in a central aspect of the celebration—to assist in the selection of the official 150th Anniversary logo.

A Symbol that Resonates: The Official 150th Anniversary Logo

As we commemorate this significant milestone, it's important that our symbol of celebration resonates with the community and encapsulates the essence of Leamington's 150-year journey. The proposed logo options are each a mosaic of Leamington's diverse and unique features, each element narrating a part of our town's story:

1. The Water: Symbolizing Leamington's picturesque location on the shores of Lake Erie, this element reflects Leamington’s strong connection with the natural beauty and resources of the lake.
2. The Green Plant: Paying homage to Leamington’s rural roots, the plant represents the rich agricultural heritage of our municipality, from the historic tobacco fields, processing tomatoes and flourishing greenhouse products of all kinds to the vibrant flowers and burgeoning cannabis sector. It's a tribute to all that has grown and continues to flourish in our fertile lands.
3. The Monarch Butterfly: A key feature of the logo, the monarch butterfly symbolizes the beauty and natural wonder of migration that Leamington witnesses and shares with the world each year. It also represents the transformation and continuous evolution of our community.
4. The Birds: Illustrating the annual migration, the birds in the logos represent not only the rhythm of nature but also the influx of tourists who visit Leamington, drawn by the natural beauty and the warm hospitality of Leamington.

We invite all community members to participate in the voting process to help select the logo that best represents Leamington’s journey.

The chosen logo will be prominently featured on a range of merchandise, including shirts and other commemorative items, allowing everyone to carry a piece of Leamington's heritage with them.

We encourage all residents to participate in this exciting process. Your voice will help shape how we commemorate this significant milestone in Leamington’s history. Voting details and the logo options are available at leamington.ca/150

Join us in celebrating Leamington's 150th Anniversary – a celebration of our past, present, and future.
