Sending Large Files
From time to time you will need to send PowerPoint presentations and other documents to your event coordinator. Our preferred way of receiving such items is via e-mail. If by chance you cannot do so because your file(s) is too large, we have alternative methods for receiving such files. Please contact your event coordinator to learn how if you are unable to send a file via regular e-mail.
