A brand new way to look at Enid

Anonymous Enid News and Eagle The Enid News and Eagle Sat Mar 02, 2013, 03:30 PM CST

ENID, Okla. — Enid News & Eagle, with consent from the city of Enid public relations department and Enid brand designer Kevin Friesen, has incorporated the flag from the Enid brand logo as part of its annual Progress edition design.

Enid’s Brand incorporates the idea of embracing the area’s heritage while looking to the future, which is along the same lines as this year’s News & Eagle Progress theme, “Our Heritage, Our Future.”

It is a marriage of ideas both city and News & Eagle officials hope will instill a sense of pride in the hearts of Enid and area residents. You can learn more about Enid’s brand at enidbrand.com.
