Re: Graduation Gift for Seniors?

We've been giving alumni t-shirts out to all of our graduating seniors for a few years now. They're nice because the gift is an honor for the underclassmen to look forward to and the alumni wear it when they return to visit and take part in team events.

That's a great idea, I assume these are "special" t-shirts that are different than the regular team t-shirts?

I picture a shirt with the team number and logo, probably a different color than the regular team shirts, and the word "ALUMNI" on it somewhere, and maybe their name on the sleeve with the graduation year?

Something generic that you could have batch printed up, and then have the name/year embroidered on the sleeve as the seniors graduate. That way you can order a good amount ahead of time to save money.

Brilliant!

Re: Graduation Gift for Seniors?

A couple of years ago we gave bath towels embroidered with the team logo, their initials and an FRC patch so they wouldn't forget us when they went off to college.
