&lt;br /&gt;
So, instead of doing what the original letter asked and copying a copy of a letter that has been copied 100's of times, I just typed another one up that can be downloaded straight from this website.&amp;nbsp; So, no more copying!&amp;nbsp; Are you ready to start your kiddo/s in a really cool club?&amp;nbsp; Click the image to download the letter!&lt;br /&gt;
