Color Quarter Page Promo, Black and White Quarter Page Promo
The above promotion can be handed out at various events or meetings you attend. You can give them to others whenever you are out. It will be a huge help you talk up this event and hand out these mini promotions. They can either be printed and cut in quarters, and if you have a printer at home , you can print them and use a paper cutter to cut them in quarters (any store that offers printing has a paper cutter). We will supply you with them as well. Email info@lwvmantee org to arrange a location to pick them up.
