Diane, I believe there can be two options to approach.1. On the high-end: my family contacting our sponsor, "Answer Racing"MX apparel to see if they would accept a proposal after the season deadline for either a 50%+ off the children's line of gear, or if they could give a further break later in the season for a deal on donated (year-end) close outs - utilizing the tax and media promotion benefits via donation form(s). https://www.answerracing.com/Answer Racing is owned by Tucker Rocky Distributing and also owns the rights to "MSR", (Malcolm Smith Racing) apparel.Note: As a former MX mini-mom; "Answer Racing" line of children's gear is the most affordable and has the most positive display of logo....'Answer'. No bad boy image.2. On the low-end: There is a team in D-37 that functions as an on-site auxiliary for riding gear. Folks can donate their helmets, jerseys, pants, boots, etc. to their pit. Or, if someone needs an item or two, they can take from the many racks of gear hanging on display....at no charge.I'll have to call Bill Howell to get a contact number.I'd love to help out in writing a proposal that our sponsors never said, "no." to.Integrating kids, racing, and education is my forte' !!cjHello All,
I’m trying to develop a dress up interactive for kids who visit my museum but am running into some problems. We focus on the history of motorcycling in America. Ideally, I would like the kids to be able to dress up to look like they are from different eras and from different disciplines of motorcycling (motocross, road racing etc.).
First, I thought of buying actual gear meant for kids. But, that can be very expensive. I also want the costumes to be very easy to put on and take off. We have a lot of school groups where most of the kids have never ridden a motorcycle. I’ve looked at getting Halloween costumes but most the “biker” costumes out there are imaged after outlaw groups rather than professional disciplines.
Does anyone know of a company that make customized costumes for kids?
