Designing a Poster for the Pro Walk/Pro Bike 2008 Conference

Designing a poster need not be a drudgery, and you certainly don't have to re-invent the wheel. Below, the conference staff has assembled a "Poster Toolkit" containing a number of resources you might want to look at before designing your poster.

Each poster presenter will be provided with a backboard (4 feet x 8 feet) that is covered with cork material that will support push pins or thumbtacks, and a table fronting the backboard. Electricity will be available at each poster station if you would like to incorporate a laptop with a slide show of images or a brief movie that shows your project. (No boom boxes or loud music & narration, please).

As a poster presenter, you will be asked to "host" your poster during two 45-minute periods when there will be no other concurrent sessions running at the conference. You have been assigned to either Poster Block A or Poster Block B.
