1st Annual Justin Samuels Memorial Event

03/20/2021

As you all know, the main reason for creating the Justin A. Samuels Memorial Event was to raise money to create a fund in Justin’s name. The money raised would go to a graduating student from Amherst County Hugh School. Everything was put on hold due to Covid, but we would still like to create the fund.
Shirts are now available for purchase! The proceeds will go towards the fund!
Shirt costs are as follows:
White youth to XL are $20
White 2XL-4XL are $23
Navy, Black, Dark Pink or Olive green Youth to XL are $25, 2XL-4XL are $28
Mountain Creek Signs & Graphics will be making the shirts.
Please message me for orders.
Shipping will be calculated, or if you live in the Amherst/Lynchburg/Nelson area we can arrange pick up. Please message me or the page with any questions you may have.

Venmo -Samuels
Apple Pay and PayPal also available.

As of right now there is a ban on gatherings of more than 100 people through March 30. Yes, we will most likely reschedule everything but before any official dates are decided on, we will wait to see if the ban will be extended and for how long.

Thank you all!
