    Such comments and objections based on the color of a hat are a troubling comment on our times.

    I have received NO objections to or complaints about the red hats.

    I see no objection to an order of blue hats, but we should also order more of the red hats, so that it cannot be said we are taking sides. If it is seen we are taking ANY side, we are at risk of being embroiled in matters that should be fought in a different arena.

This is an update about our RED Field Day hats.

There have been some people who have emailed us, and some of you, that they are offended by our RED hats.

At this time, we are almost sold out of the red Field Day hats.

We are re-ordering the next batch in blue.

I will have Kathleen show the blue version of the hat in next weeks Field Day mailing along with the other item that is scheduled to be featured.
