Newsletter

Submissions

Please remember that the newsletter is black print only. Submissions that have color (especially over text, i.e. words in a colored box) may not be usable. Try to keep submissions as simple and basic as possible. Better yet, email your text and photograph submissions to Cathy VerSchneider. Please begin your email subject header with 'ISSF' so I do not flag your email as suspect and possibly delete it.

Advertisers

We accept advertisers in the newsletter. The cost is $90 per year, payable to ISSF. Business card size only and copy-ready, black and white. Please include 2 business cards (or digital format) with payment. Send to: Cathy VerSchneider.
