IRI Quilt 2006 - T-shirts needed!
 

This could also be in the Off Season Thread - but I think it will get more visibility here.

Last year a friend of Cyber Blue made a quilt from team shirts from the 2004 IRI. We auctioned it during the 2005 IRI as part of a fund-raising effort for the Methodist Hospital Child Life Center.

We are having the charity auction again at the 2006 IRI, and our friend has agreed to make another quilt <save your money, David and Amanda (or John, whatever!)>. Last year, the quilt went for about $500!

So, we need team shirts! Even if you will not be at the IRI and want your team shirt included, we would love to have it. This is an awesome way to help the IRI help a group of children in the hospital for extended care. The money is used to buy games, toys and other items for an activity room. Last year the money helped with a new TV and DVD player.

We need shirts within the next few weeks, so please send them to:

The more the better - bigger, more colorful!
Maybe some international flavor... ??

Sounds awesome, Chris. I'll try to send down an "I Like Robots" shirt as soon as possible!

Re: IRI Quilt 2006 - T-shirts needed!
 

OK folks, so far this is going to be a really, really, really, really small quilt.
Like, maybe a quilt for a kitten, or a mouse, or a small bird, maybe.

So far, the shirt count = 0.

I don't think you are trying....

.... remember, this is for a charity auction at the IRI and all the money goes
to kids....

(excuse me while I go and warn my mailman to expect heavy loads of packages in the next few days.....)

Chris,

I'll check with our T - Shirt guru and if available I'll send you a Team 494 Martian shirt.

Re: IRI Quilt 2006 - T-shirts needed!
 

The T-Shirt guru says YES! Shirt coming at ya!

I can try and donate a Bomb Squad shirt. I have to talk to our sponsor first... :)

Re: IRI Quilt 2006 - T-shirts needed!
 

Chris- Do they have to all be 2006 team shirts? Or can we send along shirts from prior years as well? (at last count, I had 79 team shirts in my closet that have accumulated over the last 11 years - not including the Hawaiian shirts)

I'll look around our stockpiles for shirts, which I know we have 2 types available for sure. Does the size matter? I'm not sure if our team is going to IRI this year so that is something i'm waiting for info on.

Thank You,
Tomasz Bania

I'll see if we have enough extra shirts to send one of our team shirts and one of our 'Got FIRST' shirts, which we should be giving away in ATL.
