A message of congratulations to EGLSF and FriGo on 2012 EuroGames in Budapest

Dear members of the board of the European Gay and Lesbian Sports Federation and Eurogames 2012,

On behalf of the FGG Board of Directors and Assembly, we congratulate you on the occasion of the Budapest EuroGames.

We recognise your courage and determination in the face of many challenges, and we applaud your success in organising the 2012 Eurogames in Budapest, which involved great personal commitment from EGLSF and the local Budapest organising team. Our thanks go also to Klaus Heusslein, Gabor Laszlo and the FriGo team.

The Budapest EuroGames are a reminder of the progress made by the LGBT sport movement, and of the distance that remains to reach true equality. We continue to believe that equality for LGBT people is best achieved by unity and solidarity.

We hope to see you at the FGG AGA in Sofia from 19-21 August (gaymes.info/sofia212). Representatives from the 2014 Cleveland Gay Games will be attending to answer all your questions.

We also would like to reiterate our invitation for dialogue and collaboration on how best to work together for a single worldwide quadrennial event.

As you compete and play together in Budapest during the next few days, we wish you safe and fun Games and renewed energy for the many challenges we continue to face.

Kurt Dahl and Emy Ritt
FGG Co-Presidents
