Division T-Shirt Orders
Here is some information I borrowed from another PIR group:
I've attached an order form for you.
A couple of notes:
1 -- Please order no later than three weeks prior to .
2 -- We can only print black items pre-graduation. That is because everything goes to the printer at once, and he only does the black items. We can still do gray items, but they wouldn't be delivered in time for graduation.
3 -- The Ladies black tees run very small. They are a very form-fitting, babydoll cut ... small = size 0 or smaller, medium = size 0 - 2, Large = size 4 - 6, XL = size 8 - 10. The gray Ladies tees run much more true to size.
Kindest Regards,
Caryle

Cyndi: The sailors are given a chance to order these for themselves and family. But I knew my son wouldn't order any. So I did for him. Some of the moms DO wear them to PIR, but you need to order them at least 3 weeks before PIR to make sure to have them in time. And only the black ones are available before PIR, I believe. Personally, I like the black ones better anyway! So I would email or call Poseiden -- the number is on the form up above. You can ask you SR if he/she ordered any if you talk to him/her, but I just went ahead and ordered them. Can't have too many tshirts around, right? Especially with the logo designed by your SRs division!
nicksmum: Division number and PIR date is all that they need.

diannep thank you so much for the info I was so confused and was not sure what this was all about. I don't want to miss anything. I wrote my son and told him to make sure he ordered anything and everything they offered and I would pay him back. :-) I just want to make sure we have all the memories we can from this. So again Thank you!

Thanks for the info on the t-shirts! My question is are the always available for order? I would get a tshirt now, but if I wanted a hoodie this winter after my son has left BC, can I still order one? Sorry if it's seems silly to ask, thank you so much!
