CCARC MEMBERS,

Dave Birdsley of B & B Embroidery phoned to tell me that he now has
available a new line of sweatshirts.  The item is a navy blue heavy
weight cotton pullover with a zip up placard, denim collar, denim elbow
patches, and a 9" deep radio pocket on the right chest.  You may have
seen members of the various county fire departments wearing this style
of sweatshirt called a "firefighter's job shirt".  These things are
bulletproof and toasty warm!

Dave is sending me a sample with the CCARC logo on the left chest and
"EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS" embroidered on the back (coincidently, see
the new poll on the ARRL website regarding the use of this generic
term). ARES/RACES/CARET/SKYWARN et al patches could then be sewn on the
sleeves.  I doubt that the sample will arrive in time for Monday night's
meeting.  If it does, however, I will bring it with me.  Otherwise, I
will try to get it to the next BOD meeting to see what their opinion is.
The club may want to consider adopting this type of sweatshirt and logo
as the club standard for easy recognition when providing communications
during county emergencies or events.

Dave has not given me a definite price on the shirt with logo and
embroidery on the back, but indicated that with the cost of the
seatshirts to him plus his embroidery work would be about $60.00.  I
don't know as yet whether there will be a volume club discount.  That
would probably depend on how many that the club ordered that are exactly
the same.

Those of you who have not previously purchases club logo clothing from B
& B have no doubt seen those who have wearing the stuff and the high
quality of Dave Birdsley's products.

I would like to get a "straw poll" of those who are interested by the
end of October.  If there is enough response, we could generate another
club order (20 combined items for the 20% club discount) and have the
stuff delivered by the holidays.
