Default Creating a template that recognizes margins between pg 1 & 2

I produced a letterhead sheet for a NPO group and need to be able to make it
as simple to use as possible.
The logo and address will print on the top and the Director's listing in a
left sidebar. The first page margins are set at T:2.3", B:1.0", L: 2.25",
R:1.0". The second page, if needed, has margins set to 1" all around.
Is there a way to build a template that will automatically pick up the 2nd
page margins when the user has finished with the first page? Can a section
page break be set to hold the page 1 margins without rolling them onto page 2
if the document requires an additional page? If it has to be done, I'm not
opposed to writing a routine but just need some guidelines.
Additional pages beyond pg 2 are not a problem since they will all carry the
same margins.
BTW: running Word '07
Thx, JG

Thank you so much, Suzanne. The textboxes in the header worked like a charm
on the first run. My letterhead look very much like your sample so it was
great to see everything come together when I dropped in 3 pgs of text to
sample it. It was just what I wanted. Thanks again.
