✅ Quick Setup Tips for Google Docs (so it looks great):

• Use two columns (English on left, Spanish on right) for a polished flyer look

• Add a band logo at the top

• Use checkboxes (Insert → Checkbox) if you want clickable boxes digitally

• Keep it to 1 page for printing (this fits perfectly)

If you want, I can next: ✅ Turn this into a Canva flyer with your branding/colors
