Visit Sound Rivers’ online store HERE!

Those who love to do their shopping online can add Sound Rivers’ new pop-up store to their places to visit virtually!

“Many of our supporters have asked how they can get Sound Rivers-branded merchandise in the past, so starting our own online store seemed like the next step to make merchandise readily available and promote our mission to a wide audience,” said Sound Rivers Executive Director Heather Deck.

Two designs dominate the catalog: the very recognizable heron, fish and oyster logo long associated with Sound Rivers and a newer, vintage-inspired design created by Sound Rivers Communications Director Vail Rumley.

“So many people know and love the illustration on our original logo, but we also wanted to offer a design that’s more in tune with current trends,” Vail said. “Anyone in the market for a Sound Rivers shirt can now choose which design most resonates with them.”

Both designs are available in adult short- and long-sleeve T-shirts, and in children’s sizes.

“The great thing about the online store is there are so many more color and style options available,” she said.

In addition to the T-shirt selection, the catalog includes a long-sleeved 40+ UV protection sun shirt, Sound Rivers car magnets in two sizes, a copper-insulated bottle, pint glass, tote bag and a bandana collar for pets.

“The pet bandana collar was a hit the moment it was delivered,” Heather laughed. “One of our great volunteers, Christina Marshen, was in the office helping with our Fall mailing and had brought along her dog, Remy. We put the bandana on Remy, and it looked so cute on her, we let her take it home!”

All proceeds from store sales will be used to support Sound Rivers work to monitor and protect the Neuse and Tar-Pamlico watersheds.

“Ultimately, the online store is its own fundraiser, one where you get something cool in return for your donation, and feel good about shopping because it’s for a really good cause,” Vail said.
