Want to receive the Tribal publication on your computer instead of waiting for it to arrive in the mail? Want to get up-to-date and in-the-know about the Grand Ronde Tribe? Well, here’s your chance. In an effort to be more efficient and reduce costs, Smoke Signals subscribers can have a PDF (portable document format) version sent to them instead of a newsprint version sent via the mail. All you need on your computer is Adobe Acrobat or some other program that can read a PDF and, viola, you’re set. Why would you want to do that? The PDF version is available before the newspa- per is sent to our Salem printing contractor. You can read the paper on your computer or print out a copy yourself. And you will receive Tribal news much faster than the current standard mailing employed by the Tribe. If you would like to receive an e-mailed PDF version of Smoke Sig- nals and stop receiving a mailed newsprint version, send your e-mail to esubscription@grandronde.org.
