Leesa,  when you get shirts you want to watch the quality of the shirt and printing.  Some will not look very good after 2-3 washings.  Our  Friends of Scotchman Peaks group has had excellent luck with Nancy Meyer at Meyer’s Sportees in the Mall.  We’ve purchased several 1000 T-shirts and sweatshirts and have been more than pleased.  You are welcome to use my name.

If you are doing a vinyl banner, be sure it has very strong grommets.  Also you can get some with a blank for the date and then add the date each time.

Subject: [POP] P.O.Pedalfest Signage information

Below is the information I gathered regarding the signage for the
P.O.Pedalfest.
I still need to contact a few people to get details regarding rules
and procedures for hanging the "accross the street" sign as well as
the town entrance signs requirements and cost.
Mary Ann at Mak's signs (a P.O.P. member) was nice enough to tell me
who to contact. I think between the 3 shops I contacted, we can get
everything we need done.

See below...

Mountain Sky
265.0225
(spoke w/Teresa)
1. Banners:
a. about $7-$9/sq ft. That would be for a colored banner with a
different color print.
b. A full-color banner w/multiple colors and gradients is about
$13/sq. ft.
2. Signs:
a. About $3/sq. ft. or $9/sq. ft. (made of substrate or vinyl,
respectively).
b. Called this company first and didn't think to ask about "re-
usable" signage. I would assume it is a standard feature (as far as
dates being removable/changeable from year to year).
3. Turn around time:
a. about 1-2 weeks after agreeing on design.
4. Creative design/layout assistance:
a. More than happy to help with the creative design side
(developing a logo, layout of signs, etc.)
5. T-shirts and Flyers:
a. Can do t-shirts and flyers easily.

Kodiak Printing

b. As banners increase in size, $/sq. ft. decreases
c. Can be made "re-usable" as far as dates being removable
2. Signs:
a. About $9/sq. ft.

(spoke w/Mary Ann- member of P.O.P.)
1. Banners:
a. $350-$450 (32" x 25' sign)

as well (works w/Avista).
