4) Some requirements (dress/present…)

Invitation letter
Dear Mike,
I hope you and Tom don’t have any plans for the weekend of July 20th, because we’d like you to spend it with us at Park Beach. The ocean is beautiful at this time of the year.
The Turners will also be here. It has been quite some time since we have all been altogether. Jack and Skip both would like to play a game of tennis with you, so be sure to bring your tennis racquet.
There’s a very good train on Friday night. I marked it in red on the timetable. You can get a late train back on Saturday night.
Be sure to let us know if you can come. We’re looking forward to seeing you again.
Sincerely yours,
Karl
Reply for acceptance
Dear Thomas and Cathy,
Thanks for your invitation. Your daughter’s birthday is also an important occasion for us and we’ll surely come to celebrate. We haven’t seen your daughter for several months. Surely she is growing taller and prettier. Felix also misses his small sister very much.
Hope to see you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Bill and Rose
Reply for regret
Dear Harold,
Thank you very much for your kind invitation, but I’m very sorry I really can’t come that evening, because I’m flying to Chicago to have a very important business meeting that evening.
Fortunately, Emma will be free that evening, and she’ll surely come to your party at about 6:45 that Saturday, together with my sincere congratulations and best wishes.
With best regards.
Jimmy
Formal invitation letter
Dear SAVMA House of Delegates:
Spring on the Washington State University campus in Pullman is a special time of the year. The surrounding rolling hills of the Palouse area are serene waving seas of green wheat. Our area has been described as “Paradise” and “One of the Most Beautiful Places in the world” with great reason.
It is in this special locale---a small town with a major university and a superb College of Veterinary Medicine(兽医学院) in world-class facilities with state-of-the-art equipment---that I invite the Student American Veterinary Medical Association to hold its 1999 Symposium(研讨会)at Washington State University. Faculty, staff, administrators, alumni, and friends look forward to the opportunity to provide western hospitality--- from the opening session(开庭,开会) to the closing event---to all Symposium attendees. It will be perfect timing since 1999 is also the year in which the WSU College of Veterinary Medicine celebrates its centennial(一百周年纪念).
I am confident those attending the Symposium will remember their time a WSU for an exceptionally well-run event, for the beautiful environment, and for good feelings emanated(传出) by the good people who make our University and Pullman(卧车;普式火车) so very special.
Sincerely yours,
Samuel H. Smith
President
