I want to thank everyone who bought items from our Spirit Gear Drive. However, I just received an email from the gentleman who was doing our drive. Neither of us was aware that there was a minimum order of 50 items when he signed us up for this fundraiser. And unfortunately, we only sold 23.
He told me that they will be cancelling the orders and refunding everyone's money.
If you are still interested in buying a Joppa shirt, see one our Juniors. They will be selling t-shirts and long sleeve t-shirts.
Thank you, Army National Guard for our senior volleyball banners.
