You need to include a title in cell A1, and column headings in cell B1 & B2. Make sure you include a “Total Cost” at the end of your list so Mr. Fox knows how much the dance is going to cost him. Add colors to make it look interesting. You need to include the cost of a DJ ($50/hour), rent of the building ($150), advertisements ($200), and cost of food (you need to calculate on your own)

Create a data source that contains the names and addresses of all of your classmates. Type up a modified business letter that includes all of the same information that is on the flyer and in the news release – the important stuff. You would like to have your classmates work the concession stand and/or donate food that could be sold during the dance. Make sure you include this request in your letter and tell them who they should contact if they are interested in helping out. Type this letter on The Fox Den letterhead. Remember you are representing Mr. Fox and the Fox Den so make sure your grammar and spelling are perfect! Merge the letter and your data source. For review before sending the letters in the mail, Mr. Fox would like to preview the first two letters only. (Print only letters for the first two entries in your data source.)
