LAND OF THE
DANCING SKY
The Land of the Dancing Sky is a brand
created by the Northwest Regional Development
Commission in June 2003. We are proud of our logo (seen in the
right margin) and hope that you will consider joining us in our effort.
We created this design in celebration of other dancing sky efforts
throughout our area. See the About Land
of the Dancing Sky page for more on the development of this brand.
