Their & There

So I was at Summer Fest today and as we were walking this girl was handing out fliers that said a certain hair salon "would like to welcome this new girl to there team." If you do not see the error in this sentence what I am about to say applies to you as well. I feel like if you are past the age of twelve you should know the difference between THERE and THEIR. I understand that writing is what I am good at but seriously, if you are going to print out a bunch of fliers to advertise your business I suggest you EDIT them before handing them out because instead of getting people coming to you, you will get people laughing at you....

their

–pronoun
1.
a form of the possessive case of they used as an attributive adjective, before a noun: their home; their rights as citizens; their departure for Rome.
2.
used after an indefinite singular antecedent in place of the definite masculine form his or the definite feminine form her: Someone left their book on the table. Did everyone bring their lunch? 

there

–adverb
1.
in or at that place (opposed to here): She is there now.
2.
in that matter, particular, or respect: His anger was justified there.
3.
into or to that place; thither: We went there last year.
4. 
used by way of calling attention to something or someone: There they go.
5.
in or at that place where you are: Well Hi there.
YOU'RE WELCOME
