4. WRITE a letter (or email) to the competition to get information (see me for the letter format). Dear Independent Means Inc., My name is Brianna Lewis. I emailed you because I need specific information for the NYC Fashion and Finance. On your website, there is no specific price for the event; there is just a deposit price. There is also no specific place to meet for it. I just know the destination. Furthermore, I didn't see any details on the time and any suggested materials that would be needed before traveling to New York. I aslo wanted to know if there could be groups of girls, instead of individuals. Are there any size limitations for the trip? My plan was to start a (high) school club looking forward to taking this trip to New York and going behind the scenes of fashion. The group of girls would raise enough money for all to attend at the same time each year. Each of the deposits will be paid at the same time. Would this work? Also, I wanted to know if there was any daily schedule for this event. Please send back as soon as possible with any answers to these questions. Sincerely, Brianna D. Lewis CONTACT: phone (805)-965-0475 fax (805)-965-3148 5. WHAT goals do you want to achieve by participating in your chosen competition?
I want to actually learn about what's going on in the business world and see what type of things i'll experience in my future. I also want to be able to learn how to start planning my career out step-by-step. This trip will help me understand how difficult or easy handling business will be later on in life.
