4. Individual articles must be no longer than 500 words. Shorter articles are encouraged and welcome.

5. Due to space limitations, the newsletter editor may, at their discretion, edit, shorten, or not include the article or photographs (or other art work) in the e-newsletter. If an article is edited for purposes of readability or significant grammatical errors, the newsletter editor will attempt to coordinate with the article’s author to ensure any changes will not change the intent of the article.
