How to organise a party
First, you need to a date and a place to have your party. It's a good idea to some food or people might get hungry. You could make sandwiches or even a cake! If you want to have music, you could a DJ or a band. Another fun idea is to some activities for people to do. Then you should tell people about the party. Some people just email guests or call them, but I think it's much nicer if you invitations. Finally, it's a good idea if you people about the party one week before. You don't want people to forget about it!
