Does anyone know of any throwing clubs in the St. Louis, Missouri area? I have a client looking for a throws club in that area, but I’m in the western suburbs of Chicago. Thanks!

Any track coaches know of a good vendor that sells custom medals and/or ribbons for track meets? I’m looking at possibly hosting a club summer track meet next year. Thanks!
