Submit Your T-Shirt Design for Lineman Celebration Week 2020

Sept. 3, 2020

T&D World is planning a special virtual celebration week in mid-October and inviting linemen to submit their special designs for a limited edition T-shirt.

Every year, thousands of linemen and their families come together for the International Lineman's Rodeo, Safety and Training Conference, Expo, Trade Night and BBQ. While we won't be able to celebrate in person this year, T&D World is planning a special celebratory week in mid-October to come together in spirit.

T&D World is planning Lineman Celebration Week in conjunction with the International Lineman's Rodeo, which was postponed this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Considering linemen are essential workers in this fight, we thought it was especially important this year to keep the spirit of the Rodeo and the celebration of this trade alive.

As a part of this week, we will be raffling off limited edition long-sleeved black T-shirts. We invite our T&D World and enewsletter readers and subscribers to enter their T-shirt designs for a competition. All entrants will receive one of the commemorative T-shirts for participating.

To enter, please email your design to Field Editor Amy Fischbach.

The design is required to be in full-color and in high resolution. The art dimensions must be 3600 pixels wide by 3900 pixels tall at 300 dpi. The winning design, which will be featured on the back of the T-shirts, must also incorporate this text:

2020 Quarantine Rodeo
