TR,
The sign making parties I have hosted have always been alot of fun and very uplifting. We usually get some beer and order pizza as we try and come up with a witty sign to put in the ground. We have alot of laughs and it gets us amped up to go out an pass out the flyers and put the signs all over the corners. It also enables those who can't pass out the flyers--for whatever reason--a chance to be involved too. Let me know if you need any suggestions for signs or let me know how your party goes if you have one. They are alot of fun and since it is usually a small group you have the chance to get to know one another and vent a little too.
