RWA-WF T-shirts at Conference

Michelle Diener — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 15:51:45 +0000

We are pleased to announce that we have had some beautiful t-shirts made up with the RWA-WF logo, and they will be available for purchase at the chapter meeting at conference.

We are giving all members attending conference the option of buying the t-shirts on paypal (link below) in advance, and simply picking them up in Orlando. If you can’t make the chapter meeting on Thursday evening, or just want to help us out by buying in advance (and believe us, it will be a HUGE help), Michelle Diener will find a spot near the RWA Conference registration tables between 10am and 11am on Thursday morning with t-shirts for pickup. We aren’t allowed to sell the shirts in the lobby, so the only on-the-spot purchases can be made at the chapter meeting on Thursday night. Those who buy online now and want to pick the t-shirts up at the chapter meeting rather than on Thursday morning, can also do so.

After conference, we will put up a new page on the site for members to buy t-shirts which includes a shipping charge, so don’t worry if you aren’t going to conference, you won’t lose out.

We’ve included a picture of the t-shirt to this post. They are specifically made for women and are 100% cotton. Our beautiful logo is printed on the left-hand side.

*PLEASE NOTE* This purchase button is at present only for members attending the RWA National Conference who can pick the t-shirts up. After conference we will set up a new post for members who want to buy the t-shirts and have them shipped to their addresses.

Please put your name and if possible, whether you’ll be picking the t-shirt up in the morning or at the chapter meeting, in the Comments section when you make payment.
