Youngstown City Council may pass some type of Buy American resolution at this afternoon's council meeting.

$5 v. $8 per shirt (x) 200 shirts = difference of $600.

the actual Haines shirts were made in El Salvador, time and budget forced me to go with the best deal  I could get in a short period of time. The screening and printing was done locally by a local printer who did a wonderful job and gave me a great deal. I'm going to do my best to get shirts that are made in the USA for the next event, sadly the difference was $5 vs. $8

I wonder if the Downtown Dash T-shirts were made in the U.S.A.

If someone knows, please tell us.
