Thank for taking the time to get third-party input.

With the inside of the flier I'm try to create a pin-up as to WHEN and
WHERE the meetings are.  This will serve both potential members and our
speakers.  I much rather have one form (or at least one source for two
PDFs).

While I agree the map is complex, it's indicative of our parking
situation.  As more people park by the guard gate, this makes for longer
walks for later arrivals.  I did make a minor change to help point out
visitor parking.  For the short term, the inside of the could also me
used by members.  Longer term, something with just the 3rd column would
be needed.

I disagree with your fifth point.  The SAC logo has no business on front
page.  We aren't creating this for SAC members, but for people who most
likely don't know that SAC exists.  There has to be a reason for them to
pick up this flier and I don't feel the logo will do it.

The "Celebrating 30 Years of Observing in Arizona" should be on the back
(page 1, column 2).  If it was on the cover it would appear narcissistic
to people who don't already know about the club.

This flier is primarily about learning astronomy.  More specifically,
it's about observational astronomy, which is where our club is
strongest.  This provides an introduction to SAC.
