All,

Just wanted to update you on the status of the shirt. Our vendor contacted us to afford a better quality shirt than what was originally submitted. We are now able to have a 6oz. Hanes T rather than the original proposed 5oz. cotton for the same cost. As you know colors don't usually match between vendors, so we have selected an alternative color, Deep Royal, which the Board agrees does an even better job in presenting the graphics. As it turns out, the original Cobalt we presented is actually more "purple-ish" than the .jpgs showed.
So I have attached .jpgs of the ACTUAL SHIRT samples I have received from the vendor showing the Deep Royal color. Also attached a side by side w Deep Royal on the left and the original Cobalt on the right.
Our 2017 shirt has proven to be even more popular than the 2016 shirt with orders running ~ 20% ahead of last year. So we are placing our order now but the Board did want to make you aware of the change, albeit, we think one for the better.

Cheers,

Dominic
