Example Letter

Dear Danny and Kim,
How are you both? Our school activity club is planning a river-rafting trip next month and l want you to tell me a few things since you went on a similar trip a little while ago. Can you tell me how many students went on your trip? There are about thirty planning to go in our group. Do you think that's too many? Like you, we will probably just go for a day. Can you remember what the price was per person for a whole day of rafting? I also want to know what it costs to hire a coach for one day. This would be helpful as that is how we intend to travel there.
Finally, did you have to take any special safety precautions to go rafting? obviously we will want to be properly prepared and equipped before we start.

I hope you can help me with these details. Please let me know as soon as you can. Love,
Sue
