POSTCARD:
We have decided to go with Overnightprints.
Rounded corner, glossy, nice card stock.
4 x 6 in postcard, 100 will be $20.97 per person. Group total will amount to $609.00

Things that will go on the postcard include:
-Name (full, first, middle initial, last)
-email OR website (those who do not have an email will just go with email)
-city, state
-title of image on the front, dimension, medium (digital, darkroom prints)
-VCU logo
-Senior Show, date, time, and location

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADDITIONAL CONCERNS:
We are wondering if it would be possible to sale things at the show as well.
I know catering is planned for the show, but things such as beverages could be sold by bottles or cans and earn us additional money.
Perhaps acquire an liquor license so that we can sell alcohol, if this is considered, we will have to contact and talk to Tracie or John to obtain permission.
Just some ideas we tossed around.
