Blankets are in stock. Teresa in Electra is working on a t-shirt design for us too. Discussed a pink oil derrick hat for October. Will reach out to Teresa on design. Allyson Baughman offered to open the trailer in October during JV games if needed. Will consider this offer if we have enough inventory in place to sell.
Varsity leadership retreat to Ft Sill went well. Great opportunity for team building. Nolan and Dr Owen also attended. Colonel Calderon and colleagues engaged the players, provided lunch, and delivered on the objectives of leadership and teamwork. We hope to make this an annual event. We will order 3 team pics that the players can sign to deliver as a gift to Ft Sill. We also hope to have one of the Generals attend our military appreciation game on Oct 21 against Old High and participate in the ceremonial coin toss. Shana Kau also offered to discuss with SAFB command and make it a collaborative event between SAFB and Ft Sill.
