We need to get that message out to all the community. Cheers!

Could you take a few minutes and answer some questions for me? 1) What size? 8 1/2 by 11? 2) Do you want to edit the document to put in your date/time/place info. What would you be using for the Edit? OpenOffice, Koffice? 3) Please give me some phrases you'd like to see on the posters to catch students attention. 4) Is the "animal name" of the release important for your event? Thanks!
