Submissions to the LeoLetter
We are proud to offer many exciting advertising opportunities in the LeoLetter. We encourage the membership to speak to others via well-placed ads, and offer sizes to fit all budgets. LeoLetter is now going color in limited ways, subject to sales and availability. We are also offering annual subscriptions at reduced rates—check it out. Want to place an ad but are all thumbs on the computer? No problem, our talented team will work with you on a beautiful ad design. Although advertising is important to the continued success of the LeoLetter, we will only use it in a manner which honors the Leonberger breed. Therefore, acceptable use policies and requirements have been established.
We are building a photo-library as a LeoLetter resource. So, find your favorite leo pics and submit them.
Send your show results for publication.

General typing guidelines:
§ Only put one space (not two) after each period.
§ Do not bold, underline, or use all CAPS (unless indicated by these directions elsewhere).
§ Use hard returns (Enter) only to end a paragraph and begin a new one.
§ Set first line indent to separate one paragraph from another. Do not use a tab, spaces, or a blank line.
§ Single space and left justify all information (unless indicated by these directions elsewhere). Let the computer wrap the text across the page; don't worry about how it looks.
§ Use only one tab between columns. Do not put more than 1 tab, even if the information does not line up on your screen. If you would like to have the information line up, set your tabs accordingly.
