Same for our town. Its kind of big on sports...they'll cut out art classes and its no big deal, but there'd be a town mob if anything with sports got cut out. Anything in black and orange or tigers (our team's mascot) will sell pretty well. When I was on the Art Team, we had to come up with a way to make money to fund the group our second year (the principal pitched in the money for the first year). One of the members created a couple of designs with the tiger, black and orange, and the town's initals and we had a ton of window decals made out of them (they were only like $.30 to make...real cheap) and sold them at games for a $1 or $2. Probably every car in town had one of our decals on their car window after we started selling them.
