T-Shirts Available from Alumni's Family

BGDrew · Post by **BGDrew** » Wed Apr 15, 2009 11:49 am

I received the following message on Facebook so I'm sharing it with all the faithful:

Hey Drew,

My name is Melissa Pikul and I currently work at the hockey office and my dad is an alumni of the hockey program. I work at the hockey office with some other students whose fathers are alumni of the program (namely Wayne Wilson and Gary Galley) and we have started a fundraising campaign to help the rink. We have made t-shirts that we are selling for $10 a piece. They have the slogan of the '84 team on them and we think that it fits nicely with what we are trying to accomplish. The slogan is "Never Give Up, Never Surrender" .

We are hoping to get a message sent out to all members of the Save BGSU Hockey group asking if anyone would like to support the cause by purchasing a t-shirt. We can deliver them or have them pick them up somewhere neutral. This is something we are all very passionate since it is a part of our family history and we would like any support we could get.

If anyone has any questions or concerns, they can e-mail me at [email protected].

Thanks for all your help with everything!

Melissa Pikul

Melissa's dad (Mike Pikul) was on the '84 team.

If they find a way to sell those online , paypal or yahoo store or something, I'd buy a couple!

I would buy one. That's a great slogan too, made famous by Jim Valvano is his speech at the ESPYs. Inspiring stuff.

Thanks! Wish I could make it to the banquet but we won't be back in time.

Valvano's phrase was "Don't give up, don't ever give up."

Still, though, great shirts and a great sentiment.
