    The winning design will be used as the official 2013 Los Alamos Dog Jog logo and will be placed on event T-shirts and other official event materials. The Logo Contest winner will also receive one free T-shirt. See lafos.org for entry forms and details. For questions about the logo contest, call Terry at 662-9605.
