CALCIUM AND OUR TEENAGED DAUGHTERS
Everyone knows how important it is to have a diet rich in calcium, right? I think it is probably a safe bet that most if not all of us have heard it mentioned a time or two in our lives. One thing that we may not all be aware of at this time is this; while our daughters are in their teenage years, it is more important than ever! What does that mean to us? It means that during our daughters teenage years they will reach their maximum bone density. So right now it is extremely important that we see to it that they are getting a sufficient intake of calcium in their diet to protect them now as well as later in their life. Please take a moment to read the attached handout that gives more details on the subject.

You may also take your own items in to have them embroidered and/or personalized. Our contact in Garretsons is Brant. Be sure to ask for him so that you receive the team discount.

Another option is the apparel order that we will place on November 13th to be delivered just in time for Christmas. Ordering this way saves you sales tax!
