Canadian-made subdued Canada flag patches are a hit!!!

Well after less than a month of being on the market and with the bare minimum in advertising and promotional opportunities our initial supply of Canadian subdued flag patches is almost sold out.

We want to thank our new and returning customers for all your wonderful feedback about this great grass-roots Canadian-made products. Our clients asked, almost begged us, to make these and you have responded with over-whelming demand.

With our thanks we will be introducing in September an additional add-on for our 2 different patch designs. Again, because of customer demand we are having a very small and exclusive shipment of subdued flag patches with Velcro (hook and loop) added to the back in place of our normal iron-on backing. Our first shipment of "special ops" flag patches with the Velcro backing are due to arrive in the 2nd or 3rd week of September. The great news is that we will only be adding an additional 25 cents per patch to the selling price for those patches with the Velcro finish.

Unfortunately, due to the small number of patches we are bringing in we will not be offering these as pre-orders. It will be first-come, first-serve once they are put up in our on-line store, www.CanadasPatchKing.com .

We also want to mention a great fundraising activity we will be involved in during the month of September. A little 5 year old girl named Dakota from the small town of Cardinal, Ontario Canada along the St. Lawrence Seaway is in need of some medical procedures and equipment that isn't covered under the Ontario Health Insurance Program (OHIP). Through the help of the good people of Edwardsburgh/Cardinal Township and the Royal Canadian Legion of Cardinal a fundraising day will be taking place in the village of Cardinal, ON on Sunday September 28th. It is hoped that leading up to an on this day more than enough money will be raised to give this beautiful little girl the medical care that she so desperately needs.

In our continuing effort to give back to our community and country we will be selling our Canada flag patches to raise money for little Dakota. For more information about Dakota and the events on Sept. 28th or to inquire about how you can help support Dakota by purchasing some flag patches please contact us at info@canadaspatchking.com or go directly to our website link above and use our "Contact Us" form.

Enjoy the final remaining moments of the summer season with your children and family.
