The Pewaukee Kiwanis leadership program for people of all ages to participate in. The Pewaukee Kiwanis Club helps to benefit the Pewaukee community by doing several different fundraisers throughout the year. The three different fundraising events that happen throughout the year are the Polar Bear Plunge, the RiverRun, and the Beach Party. This club is about having fun but also about people volunteering their time, efforts, talents and personalities to benefit the community they are a part of. Anyone can join it and the Pewaukee Kiwanis Club is a good way to meet new people and met friends.

For my button design I was thinking of having a Black, Red, White, and Blue color scheme where it has Pewaukee Kiwanis RiverRun at the top and Let's Keep The Flood Flowing at the bottom with the 41st Annual Event incorporated in the middle as part of the paddles. The actual 'body' of the button is going to have figures in a boat paddling their way through water in a diagonal way holding the paddles that will have 41 in them. I think this design fits the needs of the clients because it gets across that it for the RiverRun and it also uses the colors that are mostly associated with Pewaukee which are the black and red with white coloring. This design uses the elements and principles of design by using color, space, movement and shape. This design will show that because I'm using a color scheme that will match the even and the area that it is taking in. There is the space factor because we are trying to fit so much into such small space but I think this has a good use of space to it. There is the movement because with how the water will look and the paddles it will look like the figures are moving through the water and finally there is the shape factor because the shapes of the figures are going to be very important to read well and I think with the colors that I am using that it will read well.

As for the T-Shirt design I was thinking of having a beach scene where it has a few figures dancing with a radio showing that they are having a party and having fun with the 19th Annual Pewaukee Kiwanis Beach Party 2014 in the 'sky' part of the scene with the web address at the bottom of it. The colors I plan on using for this are Blue, Yellow and Orange. These colors are perfect because they are bright and bold colors and they are summer and fun colors so they would go well with the pictures. The figures and radio would be orange to show energy along with a yellow beach and sun with blue water. The lettering would be alternating between these three colors and it incorporates color, shape, movement and rhythm. I believe this is a good design because it would be bold and colorful and it would meet the clients needs of being readable. As for the principles and elements of designs there is the color factor that has been explained a few times, the shape of it all because of what is all being put into it such as the dancing figures and the beach scene. There is movement and rhythm because the figures are going to be dancing and the rhythm with that dancing.
