Submitted by kali.brown on

Kindergarten students at Spanish Oaks had the opportunity to help print the designs on their very own kindergarten t-shirts today with the help of Mr. Victor Dominguez of Logo Print Solutions.  We walked to his printing shop and saw the big machine he uses to print each logo on a shirt.  Every student was allowed to help push the pedal that rotated the shirts through the giant wheel where the ink and screening process took place.  Then, each student caught their shirt "hot" off the conveyor belt as it came out of the drying oven!
