1st Place Printing is a veteran-led screen shop. We build turnkey fundraising stores for school music programs, and we print, sort, and deliver every order under one roof.
1st Place Printing opened in Montgomery City in 2011. Brian Bufka owns it, and it is veteran-led. We are a working screen shop, so when you send us a design it gets pressed here, by us, on our own equipment. Nothing is shipped off and hoped for.
Somewhere along the way we found our people: band, choir, orchestra, and the other programs that run on parent help and tight budgets. Directors kept telling us the same thing. The shirts were never the hard part. The order forms, the cash, and the weekend spent sorting shirts into piles by name were the hard part.
So we built the whole thing to take that off your plate. You share a link. Families order and pay online. We print, sort, bag, and label by student, then deliver and send your program a check and a report. That is it.
Screen printing and embroidery on our own equipment, so quality and timing stay ours.
Send finished art or a rough idea. Our designers make it yours, and you approve it first.
Every order comes back bagged and labeled by student, so handout takes minutes.
Tell me your program, your colors, and your dates. I build the store and handle the rest. No setup fee, no minimum.
