[Communications] CCGA November 7 Workshop - JPG flyer for emailing & posting and Facebook post to come on Friday

[Kathleen Howlett]

Yes, if you're willing to share the registration details, we'd love to know
who we're expecting. We saw that Mike Nowak shared the workshop info in a
post on Facebook so we're hoping that might pull in some last minute
add-ons as well.
