REMINDER: T-Shirts on sale tonight!

If you're in Quizzing and do not have a team shirt (or if you have grown and need a new size), Coach Mark will be selling shirts at practice tonight for $15. These uniforms are not a requirement to quiz, but we suggest all quizzers have them for at last Midwinter and Districts quizzes. If you buy them tonight, you can wear them to the quiz meet this weekend!

No T-Shirt Orders Tonight

I had planned to bring t-shirts tonight for any quizzers who wanted to buy them before our next Quiz Meet. But I have come down with a nasty cold, and will not be attending practice tonight. I'll start bringing the shirts next week. They can be bought for $15 each.

Quiz Team Shirts are here!!!

The new Quiz Team shirts have finally arrived! If you ordered a shirt, please bring your money on Wednesday. If did not pre-order and still want a shirt, I bought some extras, and they'll be sold first-come-first-served. Each shirt is $15.

REMINDER: T-shirt orders tomorrow!

Remember that I will be taking orders for new Quiz Team t-shirts TOMORROW at Quiz Team Practice. The shirts will be $15 each. Please come ready to make a commitment.

We encourage all quizzers to have a Quiz Team Shirt for Midwinter and Districts. We're using the same color scheme this year as last year, so if you already have a shirt you do not need to upgrade.

Parents, Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

New T-Shirts!

Tonight, we start the process of ordering new T-shirts. As discussed at the kickoff, no one is REQUIRED to order a shirt - we're sticking with the same color scheme so the old ones will work just fine. But every quizzer is ENCOURAGED to have at least one shirt for Midwinter and Districts.

Shirts will be about $15. If you can commit to buy tonight, great. If not, let us know by the next practice, so we can place the order. Either way, please give us your size tonight for future planning.

Are you ready for new shirts?

The last few years, we have been holding off on buying new Quiz Team shirts, because of the rough economy. But it is time to invest in some new ones! We will be placing orders for new shirts in the first few weeks of Quiz Team Practices. What we'd like you to think about this week is, "Will YOU be buying one?" No one is required to have a Quiz Team uniform, and it will be acceptable to use the ones from last year if you prefer. But the more shirts we buy, the better deal we get. As of now, it looks like it'll be around $15 per shirt.

Please discuss with your parents this week, so you can walk into the Kickoff next Wednesday, ready to tell us your plans. No money will be collected then, and anyone who is new will have another week or two to make their decision.

REMINDER: Ready your Quiz Team shirt

It might seem like this goes without saying, but long experience shows it is best to remind when in doubt. Midwinter is next Saturday, and it is important that all quizzers are wearing their official Quiz Team t-shirt or hoodie for the event. (If you do not have one, and would like to buy one, please contact Coach Mark.) If you have not already, now is the time to get everything ready. Parents, Please take note.

REMINDER: Quiz Team Uniforms Tonight!

Remember, the new Quiz Team uniforms will be available TONIGHT. Your order will be there. T-shirts are $13, and Hoodies are $20. Payment is due before you take yours.

Tonight and Tomorrow

It is now 6 AM and already there is snow on the ground, so it is likely you are wondering the same thing we are: WHAT ABOUT THE QUIZ MEET? Please be watching QuizPad.Com tonight and tomorrow morning. We may make a decision about tomorrow as early as 9 PM tonight, and otherwise a decision WILL be posted AT THE LATEST by 6 AM tomorrow. As we discussed, if you do not have internet access, you can call us AFTER 6 AM tomorrow morning.

The other big news is the new Quiz Shirts are in!. If we have the Quiz Meet tomorrow, you will have the opportunity to buy them then ($13 for t-shirts, $20 for hoodies). Otherwise, we'll have them at practice on Wednesday.

Shirt Orders Being Taken TOMORROW!

Please come to tomorrow night's Quiz Team practice ready to select your preferred Quiz Team Shirt style and size. I have negotiated with the printer, and you have your choice of a t-shirt or a hoodie (designs below). T-Shirts are $12, and Hoodies are $20. You may buy one, or the other, or both. Money will be accepted starting tomorrow night, but is not due until the shirts arrive (in about 2-3 weeks).

If you will not be at practice tomorrow night, please drop me an e-mail or phone call ASAP. I'd like to place the order Thursday night, if possible, to have maximum chance to have the shirts before our next practice.





(Oops! The first version of the post said "tonight". It was typo. I have corrected it.)

Quiz Team Jersey Prototype

Here is the design for the Quiz Team Jersey we discussed on Wednesday. As we said, it would be more costly than past years - about $30 - but it would also be unique. Take a look and let us know what you think. We can also get the same design as a hoodie or t-shirt for about $20 and $10 respectively.


Come to practice on Wednesday with your opinion, or e-mail the coaches today. No decisions have been made as of yet, and we want to know what each quizzer thinks.
