Help Me Select a Graphic/Logo for an Event

I'm planning a big event for my church next month, and I'm trying to come up with a good promotional graphic to put on everything. So I've come up with several designs, but I'm emotional attached to all of them and don't know which one to go with. So I was hoping to get some input from others.

The event is basically a gigantic party for 6th-8th graders. So the design should appeal to 11-14 year olds. It should give them the idea it will be fun, epic, and chaotic.

Thoughts?

The first two in the first post are great. I like the green background better.

I'd say the first one in the first post (the second one would be good too). If you want more Christmas in the logo than go for the second one in the second post.

I like the one with the ginormous candy cane coming at you. That implies chaos to me. I also like the last one with the messed up tree. Again, it conveys both chaos and Christmas.

When there's a poll people don't have to give feedback as to why they gave their answer. Particularly since people seem to like all of them, their reasons for choosing any particular option matter.

If the flaming Chaos is the most popular text, but people like the big candy cane and smashed tree, I can put together some ideas which incorporate the flaming text, the big candy cane and the smashed tree. I think I might experiment with that.

I like the first one in the first post and the second one in the second post.

as for why: I like the flamey "chaos" in the first one and I like the cutesy "christmas" with the fallen tree in the second one. it would be even better if you could combine the two elements, maybe make the "chaos" in the second one flamey, or candy-cane stripe the "christmas" in the first one. they're both good separately, but I think if you merge the two together somehow you will really have a winner.

I'm definitely not in the 11-14 range but I have three brothers and two cousins who have recently come through it!

I tried to take some of your suggestions and combine the fire text with the Christmas text with the smashed tree....and then just kept adding more and more fire....and this was the end result.

Thanks for all of your input. I'm trying to work all of your suggestions into a super-logo.
