Custom Boat Shoes - 100 Year

Yes. Will be in and out but will have my cell phone with me (772-453-4966). Note: United States Power Squadron will be 100 Years Old Feb. 2014. Thus we are in the process of coming up with many ideas about how to celebrate and things of that  nature.

Details here........http://www.usps.org/100/


My idea is to have the 100 Year logo (as shown)  embedded in the leather top of a boat shoe. They say that USPS has over 40,000 members. I have no idea how many would consider buying your shoe, as there are too many variables to consider. 

I propose you make a few samples, in different sizes and colors, and donate them to the District 8 Executive Committee so that they might auction them off at the next Fall Conference. That would generate interest. 

Also provide a proposal for some quantity with prices and think about joining us at the National Conference in Jacksonville, Fl.29 January-2 February 2014 Annual Meeting Hyatt Regency Jacksonville, FL with shoes in hand ready to sell or maybe set up a booth at the USPS Expo and take orders.

Another alternative is to establish a great price for the boat show and we could advertise it in our Ensign magazine as a Memeber Benefit and also post it on our the national website under "Member Benefits". There are definite benefits to both of us if the "Price Is Right".
