Dear Michel and Band Members,

I would first like to thank you for your interest in the H.O.P.E. Beach Volleyball Tournament. Myself and Co-Chair Sandy Hamamoto, were very impressed with the talent your band possesses. We would love to be able to fit you in our line up, but unfortunately, as it turns out we were only able to fit in one other band with our already existing lineup of the bands that won at the H.O.P.E. sessions.

We have strongly recommended your band to Carol Leblanc, for the H.O.P.E. at the Hop, which is another highly known H.O.P.E. function. The H.O.P.E. members are looking to expand this event and we feel your band would be perfect for what they are looking for.

We would also like for you to be considered for the 2001 tournament, so please keep in touch with the H.O.P.E. office over the next year.

Again thank you for your interest, Sandy and I enjoyed meeting all of you and we hope that the H.O.P.E. at the Hop will be of interest to you. Best of Luck and Many Thanks.

Sincerely, (signed by)

Trudy Dyer, Sandi Hamamoto, H.O.P.E. Entertainment Co-chairs
