   Subject: APO Press Shop Work Day
   
   Hi APO,
   
   The press shop is having a work day this Saturday from 11am to 6pm. We will
   do things like break type, clean up the back room, sort type, and generally
   fix up the shop. Any and all help would be appreciated! Even if you aren't
   a press operator, you can definitely still help out.
   
   
   YiLFS,
   -Alex
