Thanks much Cynthia Asked this question at the last board meeting. As long as your club is a member club to the PC there is no problem apparently with the logo being on your website. I waited for someone else to reply, and Molly is correct. I am the person who did the trademark for our logo. It is up for renewal next year, and I have notified Lamar, and he is working on it. I wrote a number of contracts for the vendors at the national to use the logo, the theory was that they would pay a percentage of the profits to the club. I don't think anyone ever did. I am not an enforcer. I am barely a decider.
