Saturday, Feb.26th - 11am-2pm - 127 7th Street

Hi everyone!
there is a fundraiser for my daughter at super thrift in Dauphin this Saturday if anybody would like to buy some baked goods or if you are willing to contribute buy baking for supporting Faith in any way it would be so greatly appreciated thank you so much ❤️

Thoughts regarding the Covid19 situation:

If you're running a summer camp and thinking about your financial situation, don't drop your camp merchandise immediately. Instead think of your merchandise as a fundraising opportunity for you camp.

Even if you're not getting rental groups in right now, and even if camp doesn't run for the summer, you can still make *some* income for your camp by producing and selling camp merchandise.

If you have a design that isn't dated (i.e. your main camp logo), you can raise some funding for your camp throughout the next 3-6 months. It's not a goldmine, but it's definitely something.

We can print stuff for you, or give you hardware to print your own stuff (and eliminate leftovers). With our print hardware, you can also print for other people/organizations in your area. If you get us the art (or work with us to make it), you can have a small little side-business of making merchandise for churches, schools, local business, etc. where we send you the needed products and you make your camp some money.

As far as pricing goes, you can get a hoodie with a single-color, full-size front design printed for around $20-23 (depending on size of design and garment) and sell if for $60 as a fundraiser for your camp. You could do the same with a t-shirt for $6-12 (depending on the shirt and art choices) and sell if for $30.

If you have any questions, I'm here to help as best I can.

It's time for another !

We have had many questions regarding our catalogue and what's available to our camps:

- What styles are available?
- What colors are available?
- Can I get a shirt in (insert specific color)?
- Can I get (insert specific style)?
- Is there anything beyond the catalogue I saw at (insert camp event)?
- How do returns work?
- Can I return (insert size/style)?

Let's try to answer this myriad of questions. Our product catalogue is broken into 2 components: returnable and non-returnable.

1. Returnable - The returnable component of our catalogue is in the attached image. It includes stuff that is our own STG brand (we manufacture our own clothing line) and also the stuff we carry as inventory to sell at sporting events. The returnable apparel is purchased at the beginning of the season and then, at the end of the season, you send back whatever stock you don't want.

2. Non-Returnable - We also make the entire catalogues of Sanmar Canada (https://www.sanmarcanada.com/) and Technosport Canada (https://www.technosport.com/home) available to all our clients. The stuff from Sanmar and Technosport are not returnable, but the selection is also huge.

So, if you're looking for a style or color, it's likely somewhere in one of those two options...and if you're looking for something very specific or odd (in style or color), we'll source it somewhere for you.

Hopefully, this helps bring some clarity to everything!

Time for another . Today let's tackle a question that comes up regularly:

Question: Do you have any other merchandise beside shirts and hoodies?

Answer: Special T Group has a relationship with Debco Promotional products (http://www.debcosolutions.com). Debco has a large selection of pens, lanyards, sunglasses, bottles, flashlights, books, mugs, etc. Our clients can order any of their products at a discount.

Also, we have working relationships with several specialty product companies that make things like notebooks and padfolios, pens, sunglasses, outdoor survival gear, camping and military packs, headlamps, lanterns, tablecloths, banners, flags, etc.

Below are some examples the stuff we sourced for people in the past.

If you have something special you want for your camp, contact us today and we can help get you whatever merchandise you want!

It's another where I'm going to answer one of the many questions I've received over the past months about making transfers, screen printing, and every aspect of the Camp Program.

Question: How can I get the most out of my dollar?

Answer: When you're doing screen prints for your camp, you can do two things:

1. Gang Printing. Gang printing is fitting multiple designs on a single print screen with minimal wasted blank space. Our screens are 17" x 23.5", and we need 1" between the each piece of art as well as the edge. That means that we can fit two 7" designs side-by-side (with 1" clearance on either edge and 1" clearance between them). When we're sizing your art, we'll try to help you squeeze the most designs we can on a single screen and we may recommend reducing size to fit one more design on a screen.

2. Reduce the amount of colors. Some camps have had designs with many colors (i.e. 6+) and are shocked when they find out how much it will cost for those prints. Each color means another screen and another layer of color, so adding colors quickly makes the print cost skyrocket. By minimizing your colors and using them creatively (or simply going with black and white on an image), you can greatly reduce your print costs and stretch your dollar further!

There have been many questions over the past season about making transfers, screen printing, and every aspect of the Camp Program. We're going to answer some of the most common questions over the next little while in a feature called !

Let's go!

Question: What is screen printing?

Answer: Screen printing is a method of printing an image on a variety of surfaces by pushing ink through a mesh screen that has been prepared with said image on it.

We use screen printing to print images (camp logos, sayings, etc.) on a special type of paper that, when heat and pressure are applied, transfers that image to whatever material it is placed upon. That's typically t-shirts and hoodies, though you could hypothetically put logos on wood, metal, plastic, etc.

Our "transfers" (meaning transfer paper with images on them) are mainly used on garments, but can also be used on anything made of fabric (hats, bags, canvas, etc.)

If you want to make your own camp bags, hats, or anything else, drop us a line and we'll help you do just that!
