Designs are limited to the front of the t-shirt and one ink color. (We reserve the right to adjust designs as necessary in order to meet ordering requirements)
As an incentive for participation in the UW-Green Bay Bellin Run Corporate Challenge, the Wellness Committee is sponsoring team t-shirts for all individuals that register under the UW-Green Bay corporate team by May 1, 2014! Register today!
