FIRST Team T-Shirt Quilts Available

[Gary Dillard]

Team 180 has 2 Very, VERY large quilts that we made to display at the national competition in 1999 and 2000 (I think) that we don't have any place to store or display, and we would like to know if any teams would like to have them. These were made from team t-shirts donated from teams in attendance at each previous year's national competition - we haven't unrolled them in a while but from memory there were over a hundred shirts in each one; I think one is a vertical rectangle and the other a horizontal rectangle. The first one we just got back from FIRST Place this summer and appears to be in good condition, the second one got a little water damage somewhere along the line but looks like it will clean up pretty well.

I can get more detailed dimensions next week, but we would like to throw it out to any teams interested; we'd just ask that you help pay for shipping since they are pretty heavy. If we get too many responses we'll do it by lottery or something. Our pit is just too small to do anything with them so hopefully someone with more space could get some PR use out of them - they're pretty cool. I think someone posted a picture of the horizontal one in the "how many first shirts" thread earlier this year. <actually, looking at it I think that is one that team 88 made in a later year>

Please reply back to this thread if you're interested and we'll start to work out the details. Thanks.
