Thanks for the help. I like the idea of making the tartan a subtle nod to the associations founder, much like the Union Memorial / Grant idea. Now that depends on if there is an existing tartan and if it lends itself to the number of association colors. Essentially the colors are red, white, blue & gold. I think there may be some black and white, in there but only as edges or negative space so I would stay away from them if I could.

No onto the research.
