[FC] Editor Needed

[Diane Galli]

 Our local car club's newsletter is put on our website and everyone in the
club can acess it there, and  print their own in color if they so desire.

By the same token the Ultra Van newsletter is sent as a PDF and comes in
color, and I can print or not print. and there are those who prefer the 
hard" copy, in black and white.

I remeber well the discussion, at the convention 2 years ago in Pennsylvania

A couple of years ago, at a convention, I brought up the idea of doing the
newsletter in a pdf format to save money, instead of raising dues. For one
thing it would allow color pictures, save postage, archivable, save
printing costs. To say it was not well received would be an understatement.
What followed was about a half hour arguement.
Some argued that it would give a "benefit" to those that had a computer,
denied to those that don't. Some argued, why should they even "pay" to be a
member if there were no postage costs involved. Some cited unfair advantage
as far as items for sale to those getting their newsletter faster.
Item was dropped, dues raised.............

I just got my Corvanatics news letter and it has become aware to me that we
need someone to publish our newsletter. In the back of my mind I remember
reading that Gary was not going to be able to continue but for some reason
it
didn't register until now.
 
So, do we have anyone out there or know of anyone that can take on this
job? I am sure with the publishing programs out there the job is not like
the
old cut and paste, literally, that used to be done. With computers it is
copy and paste, virtually.
 
If anyone out has any inclination to help put together our newsletter or if
you know of someone, please let me know ASAP.
Thanks
