Babas Apparell

This is a message from Pat :

" Over the next couple of weeks i will be taking orders for additional caps/visors, polos, red and black t shirts just in time for Christmas. everything will be 2500. And if you have paid your does let me know if it is a cap or visor you would prefer. it looks like i may not be at practice this weekend ( the 14 ) but the following weekend and game day for sure. if you want anything in addition it would be great if you could bring the cash at order time. i would like to place the order the week following the game. so game day would be target cut off date. for those who want something but cannot come to practice email me" meraw_30@hotmail.com or phone 090-7031-0005 for more info.
