Dear Sydney 2000 Olympic Band Performers, Educators and Chaperones,
Re: Opening Ceremony, Sydney 2000 Olympic Games
Congratulations on your participation in the Ceremonies of the Sydney 2000
Olympic Games. Because of your commitment and dedication, the opening and
closing ceremonies were truly exceptional and have been honoured with
unconditional praise by critics and audiences alike all over the world.
We have all shared in the experience of this celebration of our history and
culture which has redefined the Olympic Opening Ceremony to the world, and
you should be justly proud.
As a token of our appreciation we have great pleasure in presenting you with an
official certificate that commemorates your participation in the Ceremonies. We
trust that this will always remind you of an extraordinary event in your life -
one which the Premier, Bob Carr called "the greatest work of imagination ever
produced".
Once again, our personal thanks for your dedication and commitment to the
Ceremonies of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games and we wish you every success in
your future endeavours.
Yours sincerely,
rv
RIC BIRCH DAVID ATKINS
