Cinzetti's:  I have a reservation for 5 pm Sat night.  I would like to have a 
final number so that I can call them.  Please help with that.

</div>I understand your feelings, Carol--I feel the same way.  I don't know 
that the coaches would have an opinion on this one way or the other.   Isn't it 
amazing how many details there are to  the season?   I really like Trish's idea 
of having a suggested donation for the shirts.  

As soon as I get the entry numbers from the coaches, I will be sending out a 
message with what people owe for entry fees.  Would you like me to put 
something in about shirts at that time as well?  How about something about 
Cinzetti's?  Anything else regarding State?  Just let me know what details 
should be included.

Thanks for your thoughtful work, CAPS!

I guess I'm torn too, it's hard to make the shirt optional if we want the "team 
feel" and hard to make it a requirement if we hadn't discussed it. I just 
personally feel bad to  ask for $ for a t-shirt they knew nothing about. Those 
that know the drill are happy to pay but I feel it needs to be the same for all 
(we do have a circumstance where a family will find it difficult to come up 
with the $ but another family stepped up and wants to pay it forward for them 
if we collect) 

Thanks for the reminder Karen, charging 1/2 may be the way to go, this year at 
least. Softens the cost on each end? 

Not a big deal in the end, just something to add to the list when we tie things 
up at the end of the year.
I suppose asking the coach's doesn't hurt for upcoming years for what they 
prefer, just not sure it's necessary this year. 

Two other points-
The cost increased to $291 (up $9 to get them here by Thurs...somehow need to 
figure out how to keep cost down when we have to wait until city)
I got each coach shirts, I am assuming we will absorb the cost of those?

Sorry I didn't have time to run all this before everyone prior to the ordering.

I'm torn, but am fine with any decision.  On one hand, it's a nice CST gesture. 
 On the other hand, I don't want it to seem odd to other parents of swimmers 
who didn't make it to State but feel like they are paying for others.  And 
that's all the hands I have.  As a parent of a state swimmer, I'm not expecting 
it.  Should we get a vote from coaches?  Seems like they should maybe give 
feedback as to what message they are comfortable sending.  Will they be the 
ones to distribute the shirts?  Wherever the decision lands this is probably 
something we can add to our team documents that parents receive early in the 
season.

CAPS-
Wanted to see what you all thought of CST paying for the state t-shirts from 
the budget instead of asking families to pay?     
The total was $272 or apx $17/shirt.
