Dear Customers,

Now that I have graduated high-school, I will have more time and Lauren and I will begin sending newsletters weekly again until we both leave for college in late August.

Since both of us will be away in the Fall, we would like to begin taking orders for firewood now. We will still be able to deliver over Thanksgiving break and Winter break, but for those who would like it earlier, we are hoping to start deliveries in July. If you respond to this email asking for firewood, could you please include your name, address and your phone number.

Fun Fact: 3 reasons why students get the summer off include. It’s hot in the summer. The school buildings of the 19th century weren’t exactly air-conditioned. Summer gives teachers time to train and get ready for next year. In the 19th century teachers didn’t really go to college or get certified, so they would use the summer months to train. Doctors thought kids would need a break. This idea isn’t given much medical credit these days, but back in the 19th century, it was believed medically unsound for students to be confined to a classroom year-round.

Thanks,

Harry and Lauren Hawkes
