Pirate bucket hats support Eli Jones Memorial Fund
By Paula Pyzik Scott
Bluffton High School and Bluffton Middle School students will soon be sporting reversible bucket hats courtesy of eighteen Bluffton business sponsors.
The reversible hats--one side is red, the other side is white--were created by PromoHits. They feature a Bluffton Pirate print and sponsor names on the brims.
All high school and middle school students and all teachers and staff will receive a free bucket hat when they get their photos taken at school on August 16 and 19. Make sure your students pick one up!
Additional hats will be available for purchase on August 24 beginning at 9 a.m. until sold out. Sales will be located in the Presbyterian Church lawn. Hats will be $12 each, cash only, limit 2 per person. One size, fits adults.
All funds collected from the purchase of these hats will be donated to the Eli Jones Memorial Fund.
