I have known Andrew Robertson since he was just a little tyke running around camp. In fact, he was so small when I first got to know him I would often hold him up over my shoulders so he could try to shoot a basket.
So when my brother Mike came up with the idea of making shirts with Andrew, aka Turtle’s face on it (modeled after the Wompus. shirts) I just had to make it happen.
Earlier this year I surprised Andrew with his very own “Turtle.” shirt. While putting in an order for additional Wompus shirts over the summer, I decided I’d get some “Turtle?” shirts made up as well. They sold out in a flash.
I just received some more in the mail so I have a very limited supply. If you want one, hurry up and contact me at matt(at)delanco.org. While supplies last, you can get one for $12 postage paid. All proceeds, of course, go to Turtle’s favorite ministry, Delanco Camp.
Turtle didn’t believe me when I first hinted at the idea of making a “Turtle” shirt modeled after the Wompus design, but the Ralphs came through. Now you can own a piece of Turtle history.
Now, since Turtle has his very own shirt, who do you think is the bigger Delanco Camp celebrity, Turtle or Wally? Let the debate begin.
I think I just came up with an idea for a new camp shirt???
i think Wally is still the Delanco celebrity, for now. I think it’s pretty even, but come on — he is Wally!
I know. We could make a shirt that says Wally World with Wally’s picture on it.
I agree guys, I think a Wally Shirt would be cool, or even a “Wally and Thad” shirt since they’re always around at the same time.
We still need to make BodineStock shirts. I am envisioning a bright yellow t-shirt with a picture of Bodine Sr. holding a big mug of Boost.
We need to have another BodineStock first before we make shirts. Anyone interested in trying to make it happen next summer?
i am so there, matt. bodinestock was so awesome and so much fun!
any other people ask for a “turtle” shirt, matt?
i meant, mike — not matt (lol).
