Uniform Quarterly Meeting Update

June 27, 2016 11:19

Tallee attended the Quarterly Uniform Meeting in SEA and has provided the following update to share with our members.

Survey results confirmed the obvious system wide displeasure. More information available on Alaskasworld.
Luly’s new Breast Cancer Neckwear is available to purchase/order now. If you would like to make a donation to the Pink Lemonade Project, that is available there as well. The Neckwear is being sold to us at cost, BUT the company will match up to $10,000.00 of our donations. Those must be ordered by July 5, 2016. They may open second round of ordering, but this is the only guaranteed time frame.
The Company is hopeful that we may see sketches as early as the end of 2nd quarter 2017. Hope to have the Uniform Ambassadors start wear testing by 4th Quarter.
The Uniform Committee Chairs are currently testing a new roller bag (1″ shorter) that is meant to accommodate all bins including the space bins when placed correctly on their sides.
Patriotic and Holiday neckwear designs still to come. No confirmation on the designer.
Next round of Focus groups will occur AFTER design briefs are released.

Again, if you have any questions/information you would like to share relating to our uniforms, please reach out to Tallee and the Uniform Committee.
