Hey gang,
It's that time again, we've run out of fun vouchers to buy medals and trophies.
As we think you should get something in return for supporting us, our annual _when_we_get_around_to_it_ fundraiser normally consists of selling merchandise of some sort.
The first year it was T-shirts, then it was rashies, and we still have some stickers left over from last time.
Now it's time to think of something branded with the GPS Team Challenge logo that you desperately want, and that we can sell to you with a bit of a buffer left over so we can buy medals and stuff in the off season.
Some of you were talking about another rashie run, others were keen on T-shirts, please let us know what you would like us to make this year.
The item with the most green thumbs (or in the event of a tie, the one that Hardie and I decide on) will get made and you'll be able to order it. All profits go towards buying medals and trophies for the deserving.
Thanks again for your support, we really appreciate it
I like the idea of rashies (they wear out, so time to renew).
Need white or light colour for summer.
Also, set up an account, even paypal or whatever, so people can throw a donation at you.
I mean what is $5 or $10 or $20 once a year for what we are now getting (fun, lots of expensive gear, camaraderie) out of windsurfing - thanks to the GPSTC.

I like Wineman's idea for a paypal account (or even just a bank a/c) for donations and maybe Australian members donate half their 2 sec peak in dollars up to a max of $20. Or maybe everyone chips in $10 bucks each if they want to. That's small change for ensuring the health of the GPSTC for many years to come.
Merchandise - T shirts would be my preference although Rashies, Stickers, stubbie coolers, or red polka dot yellow board shorts would all be okay.
My rashie has a big hole in it, so I'm due a new one.
Both Tshirts are wearable but new ones would be better.
One sail sticker is defunct due to harness hook going thru it.
Basically I'll be in whatever's going.
What about a collective approach to Team Captains to arrange a whiparound for a small donation. I see no reason to exclude overseas teams.
I like the idea of t shirts, it's been awhile since the first lot, makes it easy to spot other GPSTC'ers and I'd be happy with simple graphics/logo instead of sponsors all over it Rashies & hoodies are no good to me, I've never worn the last one but realise not everyone lives in the troppics
I still have your bank details so I'm happy just to donate if merchandise doesn't suit little old me
Thanks
Polo shirts please.
1. They look smarter
2. Would wear it everywhere
3. Some of us have problems with oversize necks and Tee shirts - choke
4. Maybe the polo is an option instead of the Tee

Red bubble- they print and postage the order- so can go anywhere, GPSTC makes $8 a t shirt.

choice of hoodie or t shirt or sticker or babys clothes
trouble is Front or back only.
I have some great t shirts and The Wannabees logo is available - have a look www.redbubble.com/people/nibbles9/t-shirts/6125397-wannabees-windsurfing-team-shirt click buy/preview
Hoodie and T shirt for me, us southern crew have no need for a rashie as it's wetties all year round here.
Another thought..One of the most useful Windsurfing bits I have (had) and use every time I sail is a Cam Cleat tool for downhauling the sail. Just lost mine..
Could you brand some of those?
20 KT of any kind of wind will be nice
from march there is no wind here and no any forecast for the future, anyway i think i am goin to have stroke or something :(
with, or without shirt......
