    I saw some pics from the picnic with some shirtstwith New state coin logo on them. Were these shirts for sale??? Can I still get one? Cuz I think that they are pretty neat. Were they ever posted for sale? Is it possiable to put the logo on a Cafe press item? Cut that would make very neat sweatshirt.

    yes they are still available. We are selling them at WGA events. they are inexpensive and quite nice, and have been selling like hotcakes.

    They are only available at events, as we are not shipping them to keep prices down.

    Watch for the next event and make arrangements with someone attending to pick one up for you, if you cant make it. I can likely get one for you delivered right to Hayward.

    Some additional info on the shirts in case anyone missed the announcement posts..

    Initial announcement showing the shirt design:
    http://wi-geocaching.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=11409&start=0

    The design is inspired by the coin design to tie them together and was created by WGA member BakRdz, the same artist as the coin.

    We began selling these at the West Bend Cache Ba$h event.

    They were also sold at the Geo-Picnic event at Roche-A-Cri:

    I’m planning on being in Hayward on the 10th. If I can get one from someone, I’d be happy to be the courier.

      Yep, I looked at the time line on the shirts and they were done being printed on August 5th in Milwaukee. We were shooting for them in time for the Cache Ba$h and the vendor exceeded our expectations and has since on subsequent orders. I don’t think it was physically possible to get them completed any sooner or get a supply of them to Barnes.

      We kicked off the project to produce this shirt on July 8th. At that time it was just a suggestion made during a picnic committee discussion. It blossomed from a simple idea to over 200 shirts being produced for sale. To put that into perspective, we only produced about 20 Geo-Picnic event T-shirts this year.

      I understand your frustration with the lack of an online sale for the shirts. We’ll do what we can to make sure that they are offered for sale at WGA events around all the regions of the state.

          No, but it can be seen all the time about 3-4 miles south of RAC… at our house!

            You are correct, the whole logo shirt idea came out of a forum discussion. The plan was to introduce them at the West Bend Cache Bash which is what we did. And, to sell them at upcoming WGA events, which we did at the picnic.
