Drew, all,
I have the files needed to get started on the CDs for the conference.
I just need an idea of how many I need to burn.
How do I go about getting the labels?
Still waiting on the Art project for the banner art, trying to tie in

I finally have a good pamphlet,
really works'. As always, thanks for
listening... ~Christine
