Tiger Locker offers supplies

Juzhen Zhang

McKinley High School’s Tiger Locker last year began to sell Tiger spirit items in the school. During the week of Homecoming, sales were high. They created and sold three styles of t-shirts: women’s, juniors, and adults. The most popular items during Homecoming week were tattoos and t-shirts. Tiger Locker was created to provide products that students might need for school and to increase the school spirit on campus; therefore, items are sold at cost. Since the store opened, students are seen using Tiger products on campus, and wearing Tiger t-shirts. There are new items for students this year such as bracelets, flashdrives, highlighter/pen combos, stadium cushion, and compact umbrellas. Last year some students wore Tiger t-shirts on Homecoming instead of their own black shirts. A Tiger Locker cashier said students like to buy Tiger t-shirts to show support for the McKinley teams. The most popular item last year was the lanyard. The store is open during lunch time every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday in the Student Activities room. Students who buy products worth $5 or more are entered in a drawing each month.
