MAPET has an online clothing store!

Hello Everyone,

We just wanted everyone to know that we have added a link to MAPET's online clothing store. The store link is nested under the member's only area link on our homepage.

The link will take you to an outside website that is hosted by NĒILL. NĒILL is a MN company that offers to give 10% of sales back to our organization. So it is a win-win situation.

Thanks,

Jason Kuchenmeister
