This November will mark the unusually numbered 52nd anniversary reunion for Shakespeare@Winedale alumni. And of course the central question for so many of us will be ... what kind of T-shirt designs, quotable coffee cups, crowns, patches, and other items of "swag" will we be able to bring home with us?
Well, there are some obvious choices. T-shirts with hand-drawn designs printed on them have been favorites over the years, for example.
So we should ask ourselves if we want new designs. Or adaptations of old designs. Or both. Those of us who've gotten a bit balder (yet also bolder!) in recent decades may want decorative caps. Others may want patches they can sew on to favorite jackets and vests. Will the swag items be just for full-reunion attendees, or just for alums, or will anybody who wants some be able to buy some? How will we order appropriate sizes and colors in advance, etc.?
Here I'm channeling both my own questions and Emily Ayres's questions, because we both are interested in things we can buy and take home .... assuming that others are interested as well.
So this note is meant to spark a discussion of swag we might wish for, ideally in time to select a few good ideas and start producing items that capture something of our oddly numbered 52nd-anniversary reunion.
What do you all think? Please feel free to respond to the mailing lists, but also feel free to send suggestions privately to me and to @Emily Ayres emilymarionayres@gmail.com
Em, do you have anything you want to add here?
Mike
We gotta have swag folks! Send Mike & I your ideas.
My personal faves: coffee cups & ringer tees.
Cheers, Em

Ringer tees are T-shirts with sportier sleeves and collars, or so I have inferred from this pic Emily sent me.

Hey all! I prefer the t-shirt or cap ideas myself. I have too many coffee mugs already --- I'm afraid another one will just get shoved to the back of le shelf. A new Winedale t-shirt, on the other hand? I will wear the heck out of it!!

I love the OG Winedale T idea!!
And I love mugs. Jon, I too have too many but it’s simply a fact my family has come to accept. I’m a sucker for a log that feels good in hand. 😜
