RE: [Philmont]: Packing Packs

We order our bags from IDEL International. They are a laundry supply house
718-832-4950. Ask for 40" x 30", double sewn. They have a couple of standard
colors and they ship like the next day. UPS will deliver them in less than a
week. I think they are $5 or $7

We ordered ours and are having our t-shirt supplier silk screen our crew
info on them. Everyone in the crew will have the same color, with our
number.

Thanks,
