donation needed, please: 5 used yellow/neon jerseys

[Kelly McEniry]

Hello fellow riders,

I have two sons participating in the marching band at Carlsbad High School.  If you are unfamiliar with the high school marching subculture, the fall season is centered around something called a "field show."  A field show is a 12-minute performance that is part music, marching, flags and props that tell a story.  Bands compete all over the area that culminates in championships the weekend prior to Thanksgiving.

This year the band's field show is called "Le Tour."  This show includes 5 stages within the time frame. Bike riders will be riding amongst the marching band to the different stages, and will stand on a prop with a yellow winner's jersey.

The band is in need of used jerseys that you are willing to permanently part ways with.  Specifically, they need 5 yellows and 5 other colors (any design or color).  They can be faded, and the yellow jerseys can have writing - we will take what we can get!  There are no size restrictions - these will be various high school students.   Again, we'll use whatever we get.

Our first show is October 15.  Realistically, we would need to collect these by October 12.  We will then have to purchase some or find some other creative solution.

I live in Carlsbad and I'm happy to come pick up the jerseys from you!
Thank you!
