Honoring Our Soldiers: Original Military Art on Coffee Mugs for Patriotic Celebrations

Patrick (Mac) McSweeney was a career Navy man. He lives now in the quiet town of Chenoa, Illinois, about one hour north of Springfield. In retirement, he cultivated an interest in colored pencil drawing. When he put his two passions together, drawing and honoring the military, a beautiful thing happened. He found that his art could elicit emotion, honor the soldiers, and raise funds, too.
The walls of the local Chenoa Family Restaurant just off Hwy 55 are full of his matted and framed art. He sells prints through his website at www.chiefmacink.com. Through a chance meeting, Get Promoted has started to collaborate with Mac, producing his original art work on mugs, plaques, t-shirts, and other items. To order prints from Mac, go to his website. To have an item custom-made with Mac’s designs, contact Mac or Get Promoted through their websites to discuss your project. Any of the artwork can have a personalization area for your favorite soldier.
Chief Mac Speaks:
“My graphics producer and I have committed $3.00 from each poster that is sold, and 15% from each post card that is sold to be collected and donated to Military Families in distress with wounded soldiers.
All of my drawings are hand-designed by me and produced in Central Illinois (Bloomington and Chenoa). My productions have been given approval by many active duty National Guard and reserve Military personnel, who suggested ways in which my drawings could gain even more heart with a caricature all their own.” ….excerpt from Chief Mac’s website.This webpage and all pictures and graphics are the property of Chief Mac Ink.

Play Golf on a Parking Lot? Your Family Golf Game Can Start at Your DriveWay

Birdieball is a limited flight golf ball with out the limited feel. It feels like a golf ball, flies like a golf ball, but only travels approximately 40 yards. Get Promoted owner, Peg Higgins discovered this great golf aid at a Chiacgo trade show. ” People love to play golf, but there are times that it is hard to get to the course. This product offers a great alternative. Birdieball can work as a practice ball to help your swing, but there is so much more. When you add the strikepad accessory, you can play on any surface. Now you have two great features: 1. The ball travels a short distance, so the area you need to play has been reduced from a regular golf game 2. The strikepad allows play on every surface without harming the surface or your golf club.” 
The strikepad is a flexible cambered spring that allows an iron to make the downward wing it need to make effective impact. There is a gap between the ground and the pad. When the downward golf swing occurs, it simulates taking a divot. When you use a driver, use the flat part of the pad…you will not need that additional movement. The cambered edge also reduces the jarring of the arms and shoulders, especially on hard surfaces.
A strikepad is a great swing training aid with the golf swing path etched on the pad surface. This will help a golfer better understand the path that the golf club should travel and shows that angle that the face of the golf club should take for a correct swing. The pad is made from a heavy plastic that will protect the club from damage from the ground and prevent turf damage, too.
That means that you can practice indoor or outdoors, even play 9 holes. It is golf for any age, any ability, anytime, and anywhere. 
You can Play Birdieball :
- in your backyard
- in a park
- at the office
- in a gymnasium
- on protected turf like a football field
- on concrete floors
- on carpet
- on parking lots
- in hotel rooms when travelling
- for business events as an icebreaker
- for organization team-building
- to keep interest at a non-profit fundraiser
- with people of any age
- with children of any ability
- with friends anytime
- with family anywhere

Screen printing at Get Promoted Workshop
Peg and Diane came into the custom imprinting business after years in the education and business sectors. Peg was an art teacher. She loves to use her hands to make products, so playing in ink is her specialty. We love making family reunion t-shirts, small runs for small business owners, schools, charitable organizations, and churches with our screen printing equipment.
Diane oversees the heat press work where we use heat and pressure to adhere or transfer images and graphics to t-shirts, sweatshirts, polo shirts, and hoodies. We do hundreds of other products with the heat press with an application called sublimation printing. This is where the image is created on the computer, printed on special paper with custom inks. This print is place in the heat press, and the heat and pressure permanently embeds the image into the fabric. It is a long lasting, durable print that is vibrant and clear. We use this for photo gifts like photo mousepads, personalized tote bags, or custom coffee mugs. Here’s a great idea catalog for these photo gifts and personalized products.
