Meet the Business Owner: Kevin S.
Kevin and Vicki Schafer are the owners of Sports Stop. Kevin had started out his Screen Printing career back in 1991 working for the previous owner. They stayed friends throughout the years and when the previous owner was ready to retire he reached out to Kevin to see if he was interested in buying the business. Kevin jumped at the chance as he was always very excited to be part of the community and help with all the customers needs. He loved seeing his designs, customization out in the community and wanted to build something to be proud of for his children. In February of 2013, Kevin and his wife Vicki purchased the business.
