You want to start a friendship with them because we are going to be holding a fundraiser for their community. Write a letter introducing yourself and telling him/her about your plans.

Your job this meeting is to be the recorder/secretary. Lucky you! After the meeting you have to re-write your sloppy notes into a clear report of what the committee is planning to include in the handbook. You took the only notes from the meeting, so make sure your report is detailed, thorough, and clear. 2. A hidden family secret finally comes to light! While in the military and stationed in another country your grandfather was married and had a family you never knew about. The secret is out and these long lost relatives are determined to connect with you. They re coming to Portland to visit.
