OK, so I/we are totally excited to put this together:
Here is what we have so far. We are not worried, because our Moto Family finished up, what we had put together better than I could have ever imagined last year and I expect no less this year!
We are going with the orange bandanas again this year. I have ordered another 120, but bring whatever you have left from last year.
I am making orange t-shirts for the Tug-O-War Team.
I am also offering a special for Top Gun only. I am totally short on time this month, but for $12 each, I will make t-shirts for everyone with one color name and number on the back. Hoodies for $35 (but I am pressed for time, so 1st come 1st serve. I will honor the price, just not promising to get them before TopGun).
All items needed are listed below, take a look and let us know what items you would be willing to donate, everything gets returned at the end. (well maybe not the piñata) lol
