鹰不鹰的，听说老美挺看中这个，将来个人简历上如果能有这么一笔就能说明点儿啥，说明这个孩子精力旺盛没个消停的时候？这不，冬天还没过完，夏天的计划又呈上来了。
To Whom This May Concern,
Hello. I am pleased to announce a remodeling of the fort at XXX Rd，my back yard.
Lately, my fellow architectures and I have seen the fort and decided, well, it was simply too boring. We have decided that a remodeling is absolutely mandatory. As of now, you may say that our idea is perhaps impractical but I assure you we have it under control.
Before we are able to proceed with this plan however, I must tell you that we shall pay 100% of the costs. We only ask in your cooperation with allowing us to purchase the items we need, assisting us in some dangerous procedures, and allowing us to use the time we see necessary.
The igloo we built recently has introduced my fellow workers to the art of creativity and we see this as a wonderful opportunity to show you just how creative we are. Our project begins the moment school set us free for summer break. We will meet at scheduled time that has not been yet announced.
Thank you for your cooperation. If we must change our plans, you will be notified immediately.
Sincerely,
The builders of the future.
回复吧。
My dear fellow future architects/builders,
Thanks for sharing your grand plan and vision with us. We were extremely pleased to learn that you got another great creative idea in mind, and decided to carry it out. Through last Fort project, you have proven to us that you are very capable of turning your own great ideas into reality with great determination and persistence, despite the harsh weather conditions. Everything was carried out by you fellow architects/builders without any adults help. It's a great job well done. We are so proud of what you have achieved and I am fully on board with your new project if both you fellow architect/builder have decided to do it.
But just like any other construction project, there is a governing body that regulates the process. The governing body just makes sure the safety and other building requirements are met. This will make sure we are not building something that might cause safety hazards not only to you fellow architects/builders, but also to the general public in large. And we (Mommy, Daddy, Uncle Peter and Aunt Wendy) are the governing body. And we will put very strict security to the plan to make sure the plan and design is sound and carried out alright. Please supply your plan in detail at your earliest convenience.
As for the funding, I like the idea that you pay the cost yourself, that is the Scouting way. You can raise money yourself, or use your own allowance. I don't expect it to cost too much. It would be at our discretion whether to provide funding help if it is getting expensive. But we will be always there to guide you through the safety approach.
Please provide the planned proposal at your earliest convenience. Good luck with the planning and I can't wait to see your grand plan.
Sincerely,
The architects/builders governing association.
