Test Day promotion help

[Nelson Marques]

Adam,

 I will make a small brochure thinking on upcoming events, something
that can be re-usable, mostly to support ambassadorial work on this.

 In addition I'll make a small text like a call-to-arms (not using
military speech, taking a more community centered approach) and spread
the word around.

 I'll try to get it through some sites with good communities to prospect
for enthusiasts.

 Within 24 hours I should have accomplished both tasks, a small
mobilization text and a brochure. I'll submit it here on the list,
commit any changes that you find relevant and the final word for "GO" is
yours.
