Suz,
Have you tried Land's End corporate sales? They can do embroidered Logos,
they do collared and other types of shirts, and multiple color shirts are
available. There is a one time setup charge for the logo design. I
definitely think a few members wouldn't mind pitching you a few dollars
(literally a few dollars) to contribute to the setup charge so you wouldn't
have to foot the cost yourself. From there, Land's End handles everything
else. I know that a collared shirt with a small Lugnet logo on the front
breast area would look really cool...I'd be prone to buy a few..
Granted, I don't think there's much of a profit doing it that way, and I
don't know how well things would work with that, but just throwing ideas out
to see where they go...you could get the Lugnet word out with little effort
on your end.
