COAI Calendar

The Kapitol Klowns are participating in the COAI calendar for 2014. We picked the month of October and have a fall theme.

Nancy Carlin is trying to photo shop our clown heads for the October calendar. There are many of our members that did not send photos. If you have not sent your photo to her please do so in the next two 2 days. I was told the calendar proofs were due by August 5th to the Calliope. We have to give Nancy and Molly time to work on the project . It is very time consuming to photo shop photos.

Important Information: Photos taken on cell phones do not work properly with the photoshop program that Nancy has.

Please send a digital – high megapixels photo of your head.
The best email for Nancy is stardust4099@gmail.com

Happy International clowns week.
Thank you.
