CELEBRITY LETTER ASSIGNMENT

Create an original letterhead using the following:

Table, Insert Table, make it 2 columns, and 1 row and add a graphic (as I have before).

Make it look professional. It will bear your name as student and the Kalkaska High School address. Size down the first column to fit the graphic. Remove the lines after you are finished creating it (you may leave the bottom border if you desire).

EXAMPLE:

| |Your Name |

| |c/o Mr. Brian VanAlstine |

| |Kalkaska High School |

| |109 N. Birch Street |

| |Kalkaska, MI 49646 |

(After lines are removed and bottom border is changed it should look like this)

| |Your Name |

| |c/o Mr. Brian VanAlstine |

| |Kalkaska High School |

| |109 N. Birch Street |

| |Kalkaska, MI 49646 |

Peyton Manning

Denver Broncos Football Club

13655 Broncos Parkway

Englewood, CO 801

Dear Peyton Manning, 9/12/12

Hello, I am writing this letter to you because I have to write to a celebrity for an assignment in my computer apps class. My name is Garrett Diola and I chose to write to you because you are my favorite Celebrity/ Athlete of all time. Ever since I was little and you played for the Colts you were my favorite player. I was very mad when the Colts released you and I promised that which ever team you went to next I would make that team my new favorite team. That is why the Denver Broncos are now my favorite team.

I would like to ask you a few questions for my assignment if that’s alright. How do you feel about computers? Do you use computers to help you in football in your free time?

Thank you for reading this letter and answering my questions! Good luck this season and bring home a super bowl win for the Broncos! If you send me a reply letter, I will get extra credit in class!

P.S. If you could also include an autograph in your letter, that would be AWESOME!

Sincerely,

Garrett Diola
