Got Computer Skills?
 
Like Words and Design? 

The Bulletin needs a make-up/layout person. Familiarity with Microsoft or Adobe  publishing software a plus, but facility with Microsoft Word can transfer to Microsoft Publisher with
just a little training.

Lack of pay and health benefits completely offset by congenial environment and quality of product.
