EAC debates brochure printing, pilot distribution and outreach tactics
Summary
Council members debated whether to reuse existing agency materials or print new trifold brochures for topics like tick removal, dirty fill and dark skies; they favored small pilot runs, local printers and targeted placement to assess uptake.
Members discussed trade-offs between printing new trifold education materials in-house or contracting local print shops and suggested pilot-testing distribution in a few high-traffic locations first. Committee member (S5) reported experience contacting local printers and emphasized volume discounts, while others said existing materials (state or conservation-district brochures) could be adapted rather than recreated.
The council recommended testing small quantities in a few places (visitor center, general store and post office) before undertaking a larger printing order. "For a few $100, you know, we could print a couple thousand brochures," Committee member (S5) said when describing pricing estimates from local shops. The group agreed to prototype a three-slot holder and monitor whether brochures are taken before deciding on larger print runs.
