Newsletter Report

I want to thank everyone for getting the submissions in to Liz on time this month. I appreciate the hard work, co-operation and teamwork that you have all put forth for the good of our Folk Project. And I especially appreciate Liz for all her hard work and dedication. I also want to thank Joe Petraitis, who for the last six months has been helping me prepare the newsletters for mailing. We mailed out 315 newsletters this month, four more than the previous month. I had 400 copies printed up, including an additional 400 inserts. I brought a supply of fifty to the Minstrel last Friday.

Our postage costs this month were $132.00. We did well for printing costs this month. We got 20% off plus I an additional coupon. This lowered the printing cost from $295.68 to $221.40. That's an ok savings. The award coupons have been smaller lately because they are based on basic prices less the discounts we use. See you all tonight at Mark and Robin's house.

Thanks to all of you,

Carl
