Orca Outfitters Virtual Launch Party September 22, 2026, 4 PM : Store Overview, Mission, Financials, and Open House Promotions

I present Orca Outfitters, a CTSO‑driven school spirit store we built to revamp the old Orca Spirit Corner and fund our Career and Technical Student Organizations. I introduce our advisor Dr. Loft, the DECA officer team, and explain our mission: provide appealing merch for Computer Science, HOSA, FFA, and DECA while directing most proceeds (90‑95%) back to the respective CTSO. The site is organized by category, currently offering limited items such as laptop sleeves, water bottles, hoodies, and a Class of 2027 collection, with more drops planned. Products are produced on‑demand through Printful; the small remaining percentage supports DECA’s site maintenance. Revenue will help cover competition travel costs that previously required GoFundMe campaigns. I highlight my favorite items—a corduroy hat, a simple ’27 shirt, an apron, and a crewneck I designed—and announce launch promotions: 10 % off at the Open House on Friday, September 25 (12‑3 pm), free stickers for the first 50 orders, and a QR‑code discount. Attendees can join a social‑media raffle by posting photos with #OrcaOutfitters and tagging our accounts. I invite questions and encourage anyone, including middle‑school students, to get involved in product design through DECA. Links to the store and raffle form will be posted in chat.
