August 7th - Updated order info for Jenny Ewing Tees

[Susan Otcenas]

I have just placed an order with the T-shirt manufacturer for 267 tees. Via these forums, the family and pedal wench's biking group, a total of 167 shirts were requested. Since it's clear that there is great demand, I have increased the order to 267 shirts, so that those who did not chime in early will still have a chance to purchase a tee.

The T-shirt manufacturer has given me an estimated ETA of 2 weeks. After we receive them, I will contact the family, which requested a large quantity, to make sure that they are able to get exactly what they ordered. Subsequently, we will make an announcement, via the foums, that the tees are ready to be purchased by everyone else. PLEASE NOTE: We are not taking pre-orders or "reserving" tees for anyone other than the family. If you chimed in with a request, we would ask that you place your order as soon as possible after our announcement, to ensure that you get what you want. As I said, we've ordered an additional 100 tees over and above initial requests to try to cover demand, but can not guarantee your specific color/size.

We will be pricing the tees at $20.00 each, regardless of size. Assuming that all the tees sell, this will net about $1,500 over the total wholesale cost, which will go directly to the family's charity of choice (This works out to about $5.60 per tee). Team Estrogen will be adding an additional $500 to that donation. Finally, we will set up the order screen so that you can add an optional additional donation amount if you'd like.

If you have any questions, please ask.

Stay safe,

Susan

Susan, please tell your family/loved ones how awesome we all think you are! L.

[Susan Otcenas]

ha! They've lived with me. They know the truth. I'm cantankerous & grumpy, and boy, when I PMS...look out!

Now, cut it out, or you'll make me blush. :o

[Lise]

Nope. I'm sticking to my guns: Awesome. :D

[Running Mommy]

I KNEW we could make you blush!!:p

I just logged on to post about how much I appreciate your taking this on. What I started was a good thing, but you took it and made it GREAT!!
You really are a pro in this area, so I'm glad that Leslie had the idea to approach you! And I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate everything you've done to get this done so effeciently! YOU RAWK!!!! :D
And it's not like your not busy running a business, schmoozing with georgie boy, etc. etc... :D :p :D

So now we need jerseys with the TE logo sublimated on them so we can do some free advertising for YOU at our races. And since I'm a back of the packer you would get LOTS of "face time"...bah ha ha ha ha

Seriously I would LOVE to have a jersey that said "I'm a member of TE" or something like that.... I know the hill slug jersey is out there, but I'm seeing something blue with a big yellow TE swirl in the middle and Teamestrogen.com underneath it. hmmm...
maybe it was done in the past?? I've only been around since last fall, but yeah... I would wear that PROUDLY!!
Ok, must get back to work!
Rock on Susan!!! :)

Susan, that is incredible! The girls are right... you ARE awesome! :D

[chickwhorips]

yep must agree.

someday i'll grow up and be just like you. :)

[spokewench]

Thanks so much Susan for being so organized, helpful and donative! And, thanks for this site and your sales site - it is great!

[Selkie]

You are a wonderful person, Susan. Not only do you have a great business, which I will continue to patronize, you have a big heart and are a class act.

[Bikingmomof3]

I agree with all the above. :) You are awesome. TE is awesome and I would love to sport a jersey advertising TE. :D

[jenny's sister]

I concur. You are awesome. All of you are. Jenny would be so proud, and your willingness to donate to the charity of our choice is admirable. You are definitely making this process better - not just the tshirts, but the grieving also. Jenny was one of you. I see what a tight community you all are, and remember Jenny talking about some of the friends she met on the trail and how they shared so much in common. She truly loved it!!!

Stay safe

Susan and Paige! You are both awesome!

[Kitsune06]

I don't know if I said it before, but I definately want one. I tell everygirl I know who is interested or curious about biking about this forum, because you ladies are the best support group/club/team/friends I could ever ask for, and the best thing I can think of to help anyone get into cycling is introduce them to you.
love to you all, and special thanks to Susan

[Bicyclette]

I, too, would love to sport a TE jersey. I'm so happy to be able to be a part of this :D

I'm happy to say that I do the exact same thing :D ! It feels wonderful being a part of something so amazing & wonderful.

Susan, you're wonderful! Thank you for everything that you are doing. :D

I'll be ordering 2 t-shirts for my husband & myself.

Jenny's sister Paige: Ben and I keep you and your whole family in our prayers. God Bless You all. We will never forget your beautiful, precious sister Jenny.

Peace & Love to All,

Denise

[jenny's sister]

Thank you so much Denise. Prayers are helping more than anything -ours and others'. I hope everyone remembers her. She deserves that much. We are sll looking forward to wearing the tshirt, and I will definitely be at the Memorial ride in Atlanta September 23. I am hoping all of my family can make it, but it is going to be tough to be back there again after the time they all spent searching. I will keep you and your husband in my prayers also. I find it comforting to thank God for all the good people who have reached out to us during this awful time.
Stay safe

I've just received an email from the manufacturer. The tees are shipping to us on Wednesday. I don't know what state they are coming from (I've inquired, waiting to hear) so I'm not sure how many transit days there will be from Wednesday.

I'll keep you all posted.

Shipping ground from Florida to Portland Oregon is a full week. So we expect we'll get them Weds or Thurs next week.
