A two-headed tan and brown cow stands on a grassy knoll. A bright blue sky with puffy white clouds and a bright sun is behind them. A thought bubble appears from between the two heads and has the yellow Accessibility Summer Camp logo in it. The logo is reminiscent of a badge, circular but with triangles poking out the sides all around. The black text stretches around the circle, and a black cartoon figure of a person stands with its arms spread wide in the middle of it.
