ORDERS FOR CE MARKETING ITEMS
Thanks for completing your orders for clothing and other items bearing the WSU CE identify. Not all items offered we ordered in sufficient quantities to make the minimums required by the vendors. Christy Fitzgerald will be contacting a few folks to let them know what items we won't be able to supply this time around. The umbrellas, for example, didn't make minimum numbers but we'll try again with the next order in early November. We are ordering a large quantity of ceramic coffee cups to have on hand for you to order at any time.
