	The key questions as I see them are (1) how much effort, energy and
other resources do we want to put into outreach, and (2) who will bell the
cat?

It also helps if we can stress our non-profit status
by putting it on the fliers.  My quilt guild does this
so there is no question.

Actually I left about 20 fliers at each library and
they put one up on their board.

Let's not forget that there are plenty of newspapers
and radio stations that publicize upcoming events.
They need a press release, not a flier, unless things
have changed; fliers will be thrown away.
