2010 Murphys Daffodil Convention Apparel



Daffodil Friends,

Here’s some information about daffodil apparel the Northern California Daffodil Society is having produced. They feature a lovely stitched design created by Rebecca Brown of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The design combines wine grapes and daffodils – since our ADS Convention in March 2010 will be at the beautiful facilities of the Ironstone Vineyards winery in Murphys, California. We’re having fleece vests and sweatshirts made available early, hoping some folks will want to wear them while at the World Convention in April 2008. They’ll be perfect for the Spring weather there – and always for wear in a cool showroom.

Even should you not go to the World Convention, these will be perfect for wearing during daffodil season – and when you come to Murphys!

Pass this information to any person you choose.

  Cordially,

 Bob Spotts

2010 Daffodil Convention Logo Apparel

The NCDS has a logo for its future Daffodil Convention 2010. Becky Brown of Gettysburg PA drew a lovely combination of daffodils and grapes. Several of us had it stitched onto vests and sweatshirts which we wore during our September visit in New Zealand. We were live advertisements for the future Convention at Ironstone Vineyards in Murphys. The logo when applied on black garment appears at the bottom of this message.

Lucky King, who operates Bandera Outfitters of California, a custom embroidery business in Murphys, has agreed to produce apparel stitched with the logo. The logo is accompanied by lettering: American Daffodil Society, 2010 Convention, Ironstone Vineyards, Murphys California; it is placed on the front left shoulder.

How about wearing a logo sweatshirt or vest at daffodil events in 2008 and 2009? We’ve made arrangements to obtain fleece vests and sweatshirts starting in February, 2008.

Fleece vests (unisex) are available in black, navy, heather grey, camel ( a light brown with hints of  grey), forest green or maroon. 90/10 cotton/poly fleece sweatshirts (unisex) are available in black, navy, dark grey, light grey, forest green, daffodil yellow, and cardinal (pleasing, not bright) red. Exact prices will depend on the size of the order placed, but vests should be around $32US and sweatshirts around $22US – including tax. Shipping will be extra and will be directly to the purchaser.

To order vests and sweatshirts, e-mail or snail-mail me your order. List the garments you want with color and size – along with your postal address and telephone number. If you intend to pay by credit card, simply indicate so (but don’t give me any card information).

I will aggregate orders and send them to Bandera. Lucky King will determine the exact costs of the garments and will inform me. I will then ask you to send me payment by check, which I will forward to Bandera. If you are paying by credit card, Lucky King will telephone you (if you live in the USA) to gain the information necessary. Orders received by February 1 will shipped to be received before March 1. Orders received after February 1 but before March 1 will be shipped to be received before April 1.

Other garments possibly available in the future are: denim shirts (short or long sleeve), polo shirts (short or long sleeve), fleece jackets, and hats (baseball or brimmed). Please contact me and I will inquire about availability and price.
