SCORR Marketing, a full-service marketing firm located in Kearney and Omaha, is proud to announce the inclusion of two of their logos in the nationally published book, LogoLounge, Volume 5.  SCORR’s work was chosen by an international panel of judges out of over 33,000 logos to be featured in the annual book of some of the best logo design in the world.

The SCORR logos included in LogoLounge, Volume 5 were developed by Creative Director Ben Rowe and Designer Janelle Reed.  The logos, “Sappy Cards” and “Out on a Limb”, were created for a proposed greeting card line for the National Arbor Day Foundation; each card would honor the recipient with a tree planted in a national forest that has been devastated by insects, disease and wildfires.

“I am incredibly excited about this honor for our team at SCORR.  Our designers always work very hard and strive to develop the best work for our clients,” explained Cinda Orr, president of SCORR Marketing.  “They truly deserve this award.”
