Our Group's Motto
The group collaboratively develops a shared motto or slogan short enough to fit on a bumper sticker. The motto should capture the group's core values, ultimate goal, and motivating spirit — and serve as a rallying point in future meetings.

Keep the bumper-sticker constraint — brevity forces clarity.
If the group is stuck, try the reverse: What is definitely NOT our motto?
Laminate the final cardstock so it survives repeated meetings.
