Chapter Overview Brochure
The brochure templates have been created as shells. A shell consists of the items shown below in color being preprinted in bulk. You can then print text from your desktop printer on to the shells as needed to create final brochures. No matter how large or small the quantity this gives your chapter the professional look of color while keeping costs to a minimum.
If this publication is not something your chapter will do often (less than twice a year) then it doesn't make sense to preprint shells as mentioned above. In that case please download the "Microsoft Word - text black" document below.
Copy on the back left panel has been provided by the National Office and should be left in position.
