Planning an assembly and distribution/yearbook signing celebration the entire school can appreciate is a worthwhile project. An event like this can be a win/win for everyone involved. Celebrate the success of launching a new publication and celebrate the student body with their excitement and memories. A distribution celebration helps build the tradition of the yearbook as a vital part of the school experience.
   Combine business with pleasure. A distribution celebration can generate some extra revenue to pay for summer workshops or decorate the yearbook room. Consider charging a modest admission fee of $3-$5. Sell extra yearbooks at a premium price to encourage advance purchases next year. Also, sell autograph sections, pens and protective plastic covers. Have refreshments such as popcorn and soft drinks.
   To encourage attendance at the distribution celebration, schedule the event late in the week, like a Thursday or Friday, and promote that books not picked up at the event will be available at the beginning of the following week. Those not picked up must be picked up the first week of the school year. Those not picked up will be sold at the $60 price. Check the school calendar for a date with minimal conflicts with other year-end events.
   Plan a fun signing party that finishes the story of the year with an exclamation point rather than a period.
