Whispering Bomb Newsletter Deadline - Spring Issue
The deadline for your articles, pictures and other submissions for publication in the Spring 2012 issue is today.
This issue will be dedicated to two long time members we lost in January. Leif Anderberg, the founder of our Chapter, died on January 24. Ralph Glass, one of the first members of the infant Chapter, died on January 8.
Losing these two gentlemen is a tremendous loss for the Chapter. Our deepest sympathies to both families.
If you have pictures of Ralph or Leif from anytime in the Chapter's history, please send them in. If you would like to include a brief story or remembrance it would help make this an issue both their families can keep and reread.
We also need any pictures you took of the great Holiday Party that Spectrum Collision gave us on January 14.
You don't have to be a Pulitzer Prize winning writer, just someone with a story to share. (We can, and will, fix those pesky typos for you.)
Please include your name and a brief description of any pictures you send. If you submit pictures of your car, please note the year and model plus anything else (color, mileage, mods, etc) you want to see in print. Please don't send a link to all the pictures you ever took - Carousel Graphics needs you to pick the photos you want to see in print.
