Hi Neighbor,

The Newsletter is going to be short and sweet this week. It’s been a crazy lazy vacation week and we didn’t use our time to be productive in any way.

Instead, we messed around with Google Forms and made up a little survey. What happens with Bowdoinhammer kinda depends on the outcome of it, so we’re asking a tiny favor of you… would you please take this survey for us?

No big deal.

Oh, and if you want to share it with other Bowdoinhammers, the link is https://forms.gle/hG4p8fQBS9dpb9r4A
