Logo

From Derry Belcher, the original designer:

“The M represents the Kaimai range of hills or if you wish, a mountain wave, or if you really squint it is a seagull (representing free flight or some such thing).

The S is representative of the Waitoa river (or Waihou) which lead to Matamata but also can be seen as the path to freedom ending at the glider.

The C, together with the S form a plinth or stand for the glider.  (Now isn’t that creative thinking?!!)

Finally, it has a Japanese-like form to it – this could be the Che Feng (or whatever you call it) soothing aspect…  Just kidding, -  I’ve put my glasses back on
