Veterans Day 2014
The ceremony honoring the Portsmouth, RI Vietnam Vets at the Portsmouth High School on Tuesday was beautiful. It was a local event honoring local heroes that had the whole community involved. We were so honored to be a part of it and help out in our own small way.
Enjoy the pictures and if you have any you would like to share please post them on our Facebook page. We would love to see them.
Honoring our Vietnam Veterans
We are proud to be apart of the event honoring Vietnam Veterans on November 11th at the Portsmouth High School right here in town.
Here is an excerpt from the American Legion Post 18 press release:
“Veterans who served honorably between 1 July 1958 and 7 May 1975 – whether in-
country or not – will be recognized on Tuesday, 11 November 2014 at Portsmouth High
School with a Proclamation, certificate, bracelet featuring the Vietnam ribbon colors
made by 4-H students and custom-designed ball cap made by National Embroidery of
Portsmouth. National Embroidery owner Dale Wood is a Vietnam veteran having served
in Danang and other in-country assignments. The ball cap features the Vietnam service
medal on the front and a yellow ribbon with “Welcome Home” on the back.”
Dale and family will be there at the ceremony and we hope you and your family can join in the honoring of these vets.
For more information about the event contact the American Legion Post 18.

A White Blazer and A Denim Shirt
While scrolling through my Instagram feed I ran across this.
What a curious look…and yet kind of a brilliant idea. The blazer pulls everything together and adds polish to the outfit but the denim shirt says we are not taking this too seriously. (I think I have been reading too many fashion blogs…)
Would you try this look for your next event like a trade show or corporate retreat?

#hashtags
Hashtags…love ’em or hate ’em they are a part of our culture now. So get on board with it and have fun creating your own. With a hashtag and cool font you can make your very own shirts for just about any event: Birthday, holiday, wedding, corporate retreat. Need some ideas?
Already way ahead of the game and have your own #hashtag shirts? Share them on our Facebook page. We would love to have a peek.

Ash City Fall 2014 Collection
I know, I know, it is Labor Day Weekend and the last thing on your mind is winter coats.
But Ash City’s new offering for outwear this fall may set your thoughts down a path that is strewn with brightly colored leaves that crunch merrily underfoot…Or may be not: hot dogs on the grill may be the only thing on your mind this weekend.
Either way check out the video and if you see something you like let us know!
Golfing for Batten Disease
You may have seen some pictures over on our Facebook Page of some work we were doing for our local chapter that helps support research for Batten Disease. The Allendale Country Club sponsored a golf tournament yesterday to help raise awareness of this fatal childhood disease.
The tournament was a great success and we are proud to be able to support a great cause. The tee’s and polo shirts looked great and everyone loved the goodie bags.
And now the golf clubs are put away and the banquet hall is cleaned up this for this year. That doesn’t mean however that this devastating disease is done playing.
We hope after watching you will find out how you can help Batten Disease by clicking this link: Batten Disease Support and Research Association.
