July 19, 2016
We're excited to share another week of news & ideas with our MAiZE family. There never seems to be a shortage of ideas and the truth is that some of the best originate with all of you! So, if you ever have an idea you'd like us to pass along to the group, please just send it our way. Also, please remember that we'll be archiving these ideas on the siteowner web site, so that you can go back and view them whenever you like.
Order Scout Patches by Deadline of July 27
It's time to order scout patches! Each year many MAiZE farms order patches to either sell to girl and boy scouts (common sale price I've heard is $1/patch) or some build the patch value into their scout admission pricing.
A-B Emblem is our provider of scout patches again this year and are producing this exclusive custom patch for members of our MAiZE family. The order deadline is July 27, with an expected delivery date of August 22-30.
Orders should be emailed or faxed to:
kim@abemblem.com
fax: 800-355-3581
Contact Name: Kim Williams
Subject on the email should be: MAIZE ORDER
You can also call with your order with the following numbers below:
1-877-248-3404 or dial the direct line 828-645-3015 x287.
All orders will need to be placed with a credit card. The cost will be 20 cents each if we get to the 10,000 piece mark. If we go past the 15,000 piece total mark, then the price will be reduced to .19 ea. There will be a flat rate for shipping and handling of $12.00, that will be added and charged at time of order.
Patches are 1.625" with 100% embroidery hot needle cut border & an iron-on back.

Vendor Message: Wristband Resources
Summer is finally here and I hope you are all enjoying the nice weather we’ve been having.   I’ve already been getting orders from folks who are ordering early and trying to get a jump start on fall events and I’m happy to assist anybody else who wants to join in!
 
Along with our usual wristbands, we’ve added our new full color design Tyvek to our mix this year – just to give you additional options.  I sent out an email about a month ago attaching copies of those bands.  If anybody needs to see them again, drop me a line and I’ll be happy to resend.  We also have a great new MAiZE winning band this year which is already a hot seller!
 
Lastly, I wanted to let you know that I will be out of the office on Friday, 8/5/16 and not returning until Monday, 8/14/16.  I will be out of the country so I will not have the ability to check emails as often as I would like.   As you know, we work quickly for you all so that one week off should not delay any wristband needs you may have.
 
As always, I’m happy to talk and discuss your wristband needs at any time.  Feel free to call me at 262-754-5854 or send me an email at bonnie@wristband.com and I’ll gladly spend time discussing your wristband needs.
 
Thanks and I look forward to talking with you all soon.
