FACE OFF FOR CHARITY T-SHIRTS
If you've never supported Face Off for Charity, we'd like to present you with the opportunity to turn over a new leaf. Face Off for Charity is a fantastic event, aimed at an organization that is very important to our community. You've read about that above, so with that said, we'd like you to buy a t-shirt. In fact, we'd like that very much because for each t-shirt that you buy you help us come closer to our goal of helping children and families who desperately need it. This year's shirts are black with the always hip Face Off for Charity logo plastered across the front, as well as our Face Off for Charity corporate sponsors screened onto the back. Long sleeve shirts sell for $20, and shorties go for $15. The shirts will also be available at the Thursday night event as well. The people you help with your support could be people that you know.
FACE OFF FOR CHARITY SUPPORT SWAG - FREE STUFF!!!
For those of you who've supported Face Off for Charity over the years, we've got a perk that will hopefully get you out of your chair and moving about the arena during the games over Face Off for Charity weekend.
