PROJECT STEPS

1.

The Norfolk community recently voted to increase funding for the Parks and

placeholder on the left below the slide title.

4.

On Slide 2 (“Successful Parks”), in the content placeholder, insert the picture file

Support_NP_PPT16_1b_Skate.jpg

,

available for download from the SAM

On Slide 3 (“Frisbee Golf!”), without using a content placeholder, insert the

picture file

the text.
