Sorry (to all Members reading) that we are running behind with this issue, we were very short on article submissions and there was a lot for Roger to organize during the layout process of this issue with lots of new advertisers, a new EC page, Regional Shoot schedule and results, etc... It wasn't a 'plug-and-play' layout and it has taken us some time to organize and get together.
Due to obligations at our real jobs, it's getting harder and harder to budget the time it takes to put together a good-looking magazine. Roger's time is stretched very thin at work and sadly he's informed us that this will have to be his last issue to help by doing the layout of the magazine. Being at a point where I'm spending more and more time on jobsites myself, I can appreciate his position and want to say thanks to Roger for the countless hours you've logged over the last two years of working on this together. The dedication to putting together a good-looking magazine and the effort put into producing one everytime has been greatly appreciated, brother. Two years ago we didn't even know each other, today I'm happy to call Roger my friend.
Because of this change, we're needing to find someone that has experience with PageMaker/Correll or similar desktop publishing program and most importantly, the time to volunteer to help with the layout of the quarterly magazine. It can sometimes take 40 hours or more for each issue. Sometimes less...sometimes more. If anyone is interested in helping with this, please contact me as the SUMMER issue is already in the works.
I do also need articles for the SUMMER/FALL issues, please e-mail submissions to me with pictures as separate attachments.
