WARRENSBURG, Mo. – University of Central Missouri Athletics, H&H Color Lab and N-Vu have partnered together to launch the UCM Athletics Photo Store, it was announced Thursday, Oct. 3.

The new photo store will allow individuals to purchase professional prints of photos from various UCM Athletics events. There is a plethora of products for people to choose from, from custom prints to larger, metallic wall installations and everything in between.

"We are excited to partner with a great local company like H&H Color Lab," UCM Senior Associate Athletic Director for External Relations Joe Thuente said. "They've shown through their work with the Chiefs and other professional organizations that they deliver great products for their customers. We think Mules and Jennies fans will really like what they have to offer. We hope the digital store is just the beginning of this partnership."

All profits from the sale of the products will go into the UCM Athletics operational fund. The money will go toward UCM Athletics scholarships, travel, uniforms, and other means to enhance the student-athlete experience.

"Our core values are taught to every employee – truthful communication, building people, integrity, honesty, team success before individual success, and only a right thing done in a right way is right. We believe that UCM shares the same values," N-Vu and H&H Color Lab Sales & Marketing Director Michelle Keenan said.

The store will open immediately, and already contains photos from home volleyball, football, soccer and men's golf events UCM has hosted so far this season.
