More on the Minnesota 13 Shirts

In case you missed it, the Mn 13 shirts we designed and had made are a fund raiser for the Holdingford Area Historical Society. Buy one or two or a dozen for the family, we are trying to raise funds to move a one room school house into town. They are for sale at the Corner Pizza and Antiques and the Municipal Liquor Store in Holdingford. Even some St. John's students found Holdingford and enjoyed their visit and pizza at the The Corner Pizza & Antiques. Verified by this youtube video they have proclaimed it the best pizza they had ever had in a antique store.
