Thanks len!
Cool. I bet that between the existing blocks and the regular letter
script there will be enough to make a pretty design. Anyone have
recommendations on getting someone more aesthetically-inclined than me to
design it?
Also, for those who might not know:
(1) Mitch Berger agreed to be the press shop manager following the
biannual firing of all chairs. Yay for mitchb!
(2) The job Len was talking about below is a run of general "thank you"
cards with APO customization for us to give out to admins/groups/whomever
has been useful to the chapter.
(3) Actually, do we have a stash of APO letterhead somewhere? We might
also do a print run of that if we don't have any, and if someone is
willing to supervise.
