Below is the cover of the first issue of the CORSA newsletter under the banner of "WINDMILL," which was a name I came up with, as we were still searching for an official name. It later became the Communique. At this time my friend Allen LaDriere became editor. I changed the banner design for each issue for the whole year we published it. Remember, it was a volunteer effort. I would sit at my drawing board at work and design the titles. Steve Thompson did the cover art on this issue.
