[sac-board] Re: SAC Handout for 2007

Paul,

It looks like everyone has suggested all of the appropriate editorial 
changes. I'd like to add another suggestion, one having more to do with 
layout and readability, as well as user-friendliness. A tri-fold layout is a 
much better format for such informational flyers. In addition to looking 
more professional, they also take up less space at the point of display (and 
that's important when you are asking a retailer to make them available for 
distribution).

If you would like to prepare a tri-fold layout  and send me the finished 
product, I'll get them printed in the requested quantity (in color, of 
course). If you'd rather not attempt the imposition necessary for this 
layout ,I'd be happy to do that given the graphic images as separate files. 
Or, if you'd rather not change the layout - that's OK too. I'll still take 
care of the printing.

Peter

Good work, everybody!  Couldn't do a better job of editing, myself!
Now, how about adding something about 2007 being SAC's 30th year??
Also, please send a note >directly< to Peter Argenziano, as he has been
doing great work getting stuff professionally printed for the club.
Don't forget to place some copies with Photon Instruments in Mesa, our
friends at the >three< astronomy stores in Tucson, and other local
places of interest (colleges, libraries, the new GRCO observatory in
Gilbert, the AZ Science Center, Challenger Space Center, the >four<
other clubs, etc.)  We don't care >where< they come from, just as long
as they enjoy our meetings!
On a related note, perhaps a spruce-up of the web pages is in order for
the 30th anniversary year....
