Round-Up Commemorative Coins

Several people asked during Roundup if they could potentially purchase one of the commemorative coins we did this year for our Roundup contestants.  We did end up with some extras and would like to offer those for purchase at this time.

You can order them from Marketplace now through July 21^st.  The coins are $7.50 which includes shipping cost.
