Dear Teen Screen Fans;

Even though we've been constantly on the go, we want to take time out to check in with all of you and let you know what's happening with the Cowsills.

First of all, it's been outasite since our first date at the U.S. Naval Academy, where we played a concert for the grads. We also played a special concert date in Dallas for the Youth Against Drugs Rally sponsored by Governor Preston Smith to benefit an orgainzation called HIP, Inc. Help is Possible, which helps ex-drug addicts rehabilitate themselves. It was a really fantastic experience to be asked to participate in such a worthwhile cause, and the kids of Dallas

— as every place we've visited are terrific!

One thing's happened to us that would've funny if it weren't so sad! Before we left Los Angeles we started in sorting out the mail we've been receiving from our friends throughout the U.S. so that we could begin answering letters and start setting a Fan Club from our new west coast home base, as so many of you have expressed and interest.

We'd just been back to our old home in Newport, R.I., where we'd performed at the Rocky Point Amusement Park and the North Shore Music Circus in Beverly, Mass., when we received a call from Los Angeles. The most terrible thing imaginable had happened!

Three girls had been working for three days to divided up the mail into separate boxes; for Bob, for Paul, for John,



for Barry, for Susan, and for our super - Mom Barbara. They'd finished up the sorting and planned on listing names and addresses the following morning so we could start getting in touch. And would you believe the janitorial service dumped the whole six boxes along with the wastepaper baskets?

We were just simply horrified! So what we're asking you is to forgive us for not answering your letters, now that you know why, and to please write us again. When you do, please write us at The Cowsills Fan Club office; 9255 Sunset Boulevard, Suite 308 Los Angeles, California 90069

We're really going to be on the move for the rest of the year. But it's great being able to get around the country and to see so many of you! We're all so glad that you dig our latest single because we're really very proud of it, but after all, it's what YOU think that counts!

We also can't wait for you to get an eyeful of our new souvenir program, which is being put together for us by the groovy artist Cal Schenkel, who does absolutely wild things! It should be ready soon and if we aren't going to be in your area in person, and you'd like a copy, please write us at our fan club address and let us know.

Please keep in touch, and watch for more announcements about the Cowsill Fan Club.

Love to each and every one of you.
Bob      Paul      John      Barry      Susan
