Club Newsletters

[D4WNO]

You asked for it, you got it :agree:

It has taken me soooooooooooooo long to do so please don’t say anything too horrible and make me cry. :laugh: Please excuse the formatting in a few small areas, it’s been through quite a few file type changes to make it a reasonable size for people to view. Also, the "first" page is actually the back page - I've done this in case we print any, fold them and post them out as a little pamphlet later on.

I've been through all the threads about what the members want and hopefully I've covered it, if not more. I hope it's attractive to look at and interesting to read. Ummmm, I'd like to say blood has gone into it but I think those red marks were just the copious amounts of wine I have drunk during the days and nights making this.

It won't take half as long for me to do next time as I had to deal with thought processes and the design aspect of it - I can now use this (or something like this) as a template for future newsletters.

Thank you for the suggestions made by the members, the help and tweaks from the Committee team and Stu21T for offering to write the first draft of the members feature for me.

Hope you like...

Looks good Dawn. Good start to the newsletter.

Can you just check the 'Renault @ Ace Cafe first Monday Monthly'? I can't see this on their calender, is it new? or do you mean French Classic & Performance Cars Meet which I think is on every 3rd Monday of each month?

[car.crash]

had a quick look. looks very nice. ace cafe is the 3rd monday of the month not the 1st.

[D4WNO]

Excellent, thanks.

Dawn, that's f*ckin' brilliant. Really looks the part, very well written, interesting to read, advertises the right things, brings attention to information that may be on the website but that perhaps folk don't/forget to visit. Very good indeed, well done.

My questions from here would be:

- Is there a plan to get it out to as many places outside of the club/member base as possible? Either electronically or paper copy. I realise that for those reading electronically, the internal site links in the doc wouldn't work.

- For those who don't know what 'RTOC' is and who happen upon a copy of the Wastegate, especially in paper format; maybe I've missed it but I can't see our web homepage address stated anywhere. I'd say an embedded RTOC homepage link with the url in brackets below would cover both eventualities.

- Are you likely to adhere to a frequency? Like 2, 3 or 4 a year?

Again, well done it's superb.
