Here are a few items I could use if you'd like to help out with some in-kind gifts. There are cheap things, there are expensive things but all are needed and every little bit helps. NW Pentathlon colors are navy blue with white accent. USMPA's are red, white and blue...anything with USA on it.
Make sure to tell them that you don't want to receive catalogs, unless you want to receive them of course.
