History

Established in 1986.

One day in 1982, a recent graduate in architecture from the University of Illinois had the inspiration to start his own t-​shirt printing business.

Ed Lovekamp asked for his girlfriend Laura Weishaar’s help (now wife of 28+ years), and she drew the first design by hand. Screens for the designs were done in the bathtub, and he used cookie sheets and the kitchen oven to dry the printed t-​shirts! This team effort led them to combine their last names, Weishaar and Lovekamp, to create Weiskamp for the business name. Later on in 1995, when they adopted their three children, all of them took the last name Weiskamp as their surname.

Weiskamp Screen Printing now calls downtown Champaign home, and continues to provide high quality custom t-​shirts for all kinds of members of the local community and beyond. They have gone beyond just t-​shirts and now offer all kinds of custom garments, embroidery, and promotional items as well.

Meet the Business Owner

Ed W.

Business Owner

Ed was inspired to start his own business while he was still working part time as a technical illustrator at the Department of Engineering at the U of I.

He loves working with his hands and helping people, and in 1982 he saw a need in the community that he could help fill. His drive for creativity and hands-​on approach inspired him to build his own screen printing press and dryer in the early ’80’s when he first started out.

More recently, Ed has not only handled the management & operations of the business, but he can also be found doing all facility renovation work himself, planting flowers outside the downtown Champaign storefront, and even harvesting cherries outside the store that he planted there in 2009. Frequently he even spends all morning grilling or cooking a delicious breakfast for the staff with eggs from his backyard chickens.

When asked about his business goals, Ed mentions how he wants Weiskamp to be a resource for the community and an awesome place to work.
