...can the club afford to order above and beyond the expected immediate demand?
We generally do order 20 or so additional jerseys, but we have to be careful not to have our finances tied up in stock, when the funds would be better served in trail construction, equipment maintenance, insurance, etc...
I would hope that we could have a new jersey designed by the end of summer, to be delivered in time for the holidays...I know that seems to be a long way off, but we need to secure sponsors, design the jersey, take orders, place the orders, sort the order and deliver...This takes a lot of time and effort...
We'll be looking for volunteers...Volunteers won't be left out in the cold, the ex board and others familiar with the process will be available to assist, but our platters are full at the moment...This is a good way to get more involved with YOUR club, because as a volunteer organization, we're only as good as our membership!
