Message From Deepa: T Price Quote

So Customink is a site we can use to get shirts. If we get Hanes tagless it will cost 14.48 per shirt if we get 12, 12.47 per shirt if we get 16 and it just keeps decreasing. GIldan's brand is cheaper, but I haven't really heard of it and it's not that much less costly. The shipping is free too.

The image shown above is 90% of the final work, she will spend some time on fine tone it a bit.

EON: 10-08-06 @ Congee Village

A CHANCE TO MEET ALL MEMBERS

Message from the host, Emily Chan & Anderson Koo

Hi everyone! I’m glad we were able to get a group for dinner today. Next Sunday (October 8) let’s go to Congee Bowery located at 207 Bowery (near Spring street). They have a snazzy webpage here --which I (or Anderson) can assure you that it’s much too fancy a webpage for a Chinese place. Portions are big, food is cheap and they have rice plates and congee (~$6-7 dollars.. though they do have pricier more specialized dishes on their webpage menu). YUM! So please join us. Since practice ends at 7:30, I'm thinking we will probably be eating around 8:00ish. Send me an e-mail (ec1214 [at] med.nyu.edu) so I’ll also have an idea of how many of us will be there/make a reservation if necessary.

WHAT IS EON?

EON = Eating Out Night = part of Beyond Badminton. Got an idea? Email us at info@nyubadminton.info and be the HOST!!!
