May 29, 2002: This is a must read for anyone who is planning an event. The information in this book is organized by the size of the event planned and by what needs to be done at certain times. The book also shows you have to write public announcements, thank you letters, invitations, news releases, and other letters. This book will be the most valuable resource for any event and will be used over and over again.
