ENHANCED 2018 KINDNESS SHIRT DESIGN
The CKM has decided to make a change to the 2018 Kindness Shirt.
Many have expressed how much they LOVE the Idaho design. We do too! We really loved the 2017 design, but still felt like we needed to do something different to still make it feel like a NEW DESIGN for 2018. The students LOVE to get a new design each year. Our Directors have voted and we hope you all like the enhancement.
