Decided on all shorts sleeve and x-small and small to have to Kindergarten Round up. Talk to Tina about info new parents about cash for the shirts. Changed the price of the shirts to $10 or 2 for $18. Discussed new logo from Awards to Go, possible for following year. Lindsay to talk with Cheryl at ECC about getting T-shirt information out to parents for Round-up.
