Maplewoodstock T-shirts have arrived - Order your pledge package online today!

Here's the kids shirt.

There are 2 adult designs this year

2nd design

oh, that's annoying, I like the kids ones better. Never mind, I'll try to pick one up at the duck race if I have the cash on m

that's been a consistent theme, each year. Some people prefer the kids' design, so why restrict access? Let's have both designs available in all the sizes.

Agreed. The children's shirt is almost always better than the adult version IMO.

I think that all of the designs are extra gorgeous this year! I can't wait to see you at Mayfest and support Maplewoodstock by buying a couple of shirts

I like them all! Think I'll get one today. Thanks for posting pics.

What are the dates for Maplewoodstock this year?

You can please all of the people some of the time and some of the some of the people all of the time, but you can't please all the people all of the time.

Although I like the kids version more than the adult version as well.

Yes!!!!

Picked up my Big Guitar shirt at Mayfest. It's nice having a t-shirt you can wear for a future event. It's like being a time-traveler

Maybe I'll just get real small so I can wear a kid's shirt.

correct. Some people prefer the kids' design. But generally not enough to make it worthwhile to order a full run of them. Folks have to remember that the t-shirts are one of the most important fund raising efforts for Maplewoodstock. fund raising that keeps the event free. I completely understand that people might be disappointed that they can't get the design they want in all of the sizes they want. but any negative comments aren't really helpful in regard to a fundraising effort undertaken completely by volunteers who are committed to keeping this event free for everyone.

I'm not going to say I've loved every year's design. But I have at least one shirt from every Maplewoodstock. And for many of the years, I have several. So let's everyone buy a shirt! Or two. Or three

Any more t-shirt purchase opportunities before the actual event? I'm going to be out of town that weekend, sadly.

I think that they should have just ONE design each year in all sizes and an assortment of colors rather than different designs for kids or different colors/styles by gender. KISS principle (Keep it simple!

I was discussing this yesterday, and wished I had bought a 2012 shirt. That was still my favorite, but 2012 was a tight year and I wasn't around for the show, so it didn't happen. I complain about one of the designs every year, so I had to say something this year or I'd lose my MWC membership

I was told that they would have shirts for sale in the village on Saturday and Sunday in front of the bank. Not sure if he meant every weekend or just this coming weekend

we're in town the next few hours selling shirts

nice pic ML1!

If anyone want to pick up a shirt/lawn sign - etc. Send me a message - I'm close to Clinton School. We'll have the shirt options and online ordering up soon.

Yes, please! I've never bought one because the only one I like, every year, is the kids' design. And I really want a Maplewoodstock shirt!

For every adult who would wear the kids' design each year, there are probably 10 who would not. The intent by the committee is to maximize revenue by selling as many shirts as possible but also to not have a large number unsold at the end of the event. It is one of the major sources of revenue for the event, which remains free to attendees. It's kind of unfair imho to ask the committee to take a risk by changing around a fundraising model that has worked very well for over a decade.

Lawn sign professionally installed. Shirts in the wash. Programs ready for distribution.

Thanks Jamie.
