[rfu-automation] Re: [RFU] long sleeve shirt donations

[Noel L. Vivar]

I can add this PSA to the website, if someone from tech could recreate
the pages for me again. I know that we lost all the old stuff that I
did, but I don't have permissions to add pages to the website, so I
can't recreate the work again.

I hope all is well in Urbana. I miss the station. -Noel
