Dear President Rechcigl:
Thank you for your e-mail dated 13 March 2003 and for your kind invitation to 2003 SVU
Conference, which will be held in Iowa on 26 - 27 June 2003.
I am honored to be invited and I value your efforts bearing on Czech-American relations
and your cultural activities. I am fully aware of the significance and the role of SVU,
which belongs among the most active Czech-related organizations in the United States. I am
therefore delighted to provide patronage for the Conference. Unfortunately, my duties and
busy schedule will not allow me to accept your invitation to personally attend.
I recall with fondness our meetings in the past. I would like to thank you once again for
your invitation and wish you continued success.
Sincerely yours,
signed
Vaclav Klaus
Mr. Miloslav Rechcigl
President SVU
