Why have one
It gives a bailliage credibility as well as visibility.
It provides a formal vehicle for the Bailliage officers to communicate
information to the membership.
It serves as a historical record of Bailliage activities.
It's more likely to be read than a letter because of its attractive format.
Designing and printing a newsletter
|
Have a well
designed 11 x 17-inch "shell" printed in quantity, or
use professionally designed newsletter paper for your newsletter.
Make the copy fit the space provided.
Use a printer that will accommodate 11 x 17-inch paper to print
your newsletter. If you don't own or have easy access to an 11 x
17-inch printer, print two 8-1/2 x 11 inch sheets front and back
and use a copier to create an 11 x 17-inch newsletter. |
