PART B_2
To: Rick Deevers
From: Jan Ford
Date: May 6
Subject: Welcome party

Hi Rick,

I’m writing to remind you that as the designated organizers, we need to start putting the welcome party together for the new employees who’ll be joining our team next month.

Ideally, the party would take place the week they start, which should be June 6. Let me confirm this first with Amanda.She’ll be back at work on Monday.

As for the venue, we need to think about having the party catered if we’re going to use the cafeteria like we did last year.
Don’t you think choosing an off-site location would be easier? Have them include food and drinks for a set price per person?

In any case, let’s get together this week to see what we can come up with.
