KRALJEVSKI PAR PONOVO U POSETI ZBOG PRIMANJA NAGRADE
Njihova Kraljevska Visočanstva Prestolonaslednik Aleksandar i Princeza
Katarina od Jugoslavije boraviće u našem gradu sledećeg meseca, kako bi primili
nagradu za mir Ambasadora za decu. Ukoliko Vam njihova imena zvuče poznato, to
je zato što oni nisu nepoznati u Indijani.
Prestolonaslednik Aleksandar je sa suprugom prisustvovao Kulver akademiji,
posetivši 2003. godine Indijanapolis, kada su bili gosti na gala događaju.
Njihov domaćin tada je bio Kristel de Han, a prethodne jeseni pojavili su se u
severozapadnoj Indijani da od dijaspore zatraže humanitarnu pomoć.
Ovogodišnja četvorodnevna poseta uključuje posetu muzejima, ručak sa
Guvernerom Mičom Denijelsom, večeru sa De Hanom, kao i put do Blumingtona, gde
studira jedna od unuka Princeze Katarine.
Predsednik Ambasadora za decu Seli Braun istakla je da je radila sa
Kraljevskim parom nekoliko godina na nizu projekata i da je impresionirana
njihovim napornim radom i posvećenosti da poboljšaju uslove u svojoj zemlji.
“Postoji mnogo potreba u Srbiji, a Kraljevski par je posvećen da zaista učini
nešto za svoju zemlju”, istakla je Braunova. Volonteri Ambasadora za decu
pozvani su u njihov dom na čaj, a kad može, Kraljevski par se pridružuje
volonterima u posetama sirotištima i bolnicama, kaže Braunova.
Karte za semi-formalno nagradno veče košta 150 dolara. Za više informacija

Prestolonaslednik Aleksandar i Princeza Katarina od Jugoslavije posetili
Indijanapolis
Daleko, daleko u zemlji Jugoslaviji, živi Princ Aleksandar II i njegova lepa
Princeza po imenu Katarina. Jednoga dana, 25. aprila 2007. godine, Kraljevski
par je otputovao u daleku zemlju zvanu Indijanapolis, Indijana, gde su došli da
prime nagradu za mir Ambasadora za decu.
Ambasadori za decu (AFC) je neprofitna, humanitarna organizacija posvećena
zadovoljavanju potreba dece širom sveta kroz kratkoročne humanitarne savete i
održive programe. Svake godine, AFC dodeljuje nagradu odabranim osobama širom
sveta za koje se smatra da su imali veliki uticaj u svojoj zemlji, pre svega
kada su u pitanju neprivilegovana, zlostavljana ili napuštena deca.
Nagrada je uručena u Centru za proučavanje mira (PLC) u Igl Krik Parku u
Indijanapolisu, gde se nalazi i Drvo mira, u 14 časova u sredu popodne.
Prema PLC-u “Svaki list na Drvetu mira pomaže hiljadama mladih ljudi da
smanje nasilje i pospešuju dobrotu”. Beki Benet Lukas, lokalni umetnik je
stvaralac ovog drveta.
Kako se navodi na sajtu, “PLC je obrazovna institucija u Indijanapolisu koja
podučava mlade i odrasle ljude da izgrađuju mir, kao i tehnike ublažavanja
konfliktnih situacija. PLC traži bezbedne i uobičajene načine suočavanja sa
konfliktima i razlikama”.
Sajt takođe navodi da je PLC osnovan 1997. godine i da je nedavno dopreo do
100,000 mladih i odraslih ljudi.
Nakon ceremonije kod Drveta mira, usledila je kraća konferencija za novinare,
čiji je sponsor bila organizacija AFC, na kojoj je, pored ostalih govornika,
govorio i Kraljevski par.
Kraljevskom paru je priređena dobrodošlica, a na poklon im je uručen stakleni
globus. Ben Mekenzi, talentovani mladi umetnik čiji je glavni predmet umetničke
obrade staklo stvorio je ovaj globus. Mekenzi, trenutno 14-ogodišnji učenik
prvog razreda srednje škole Herron High, je inače učenik u Umetničkom centru u
Indijanapolisu od svoje desete godine.
Mekenzi je rekao: “Globus prikazuje Zemlju koja se preliva u nijansama
plave”.
Drugi govornici koji su prethodili Kraljevskom paru bili su Džudi O Benon,
bivša Prva dama Indijane; Tim Nejšon, suosnivač i izvršni director PLC-a; kao i
Dr Seli Braun, predsednik i glavni menadžer AFC.
Konačno, došao je i ključni trenutak dana, kada su se skupu obratili dugo
očekivani Princ i Princeza.
“Bila nam je čast što da nas je posetio Kraljevski par i što smo čuli o
njihovim humanitarnim naporima, pogotovo kada je u pitanju njihov rad sa decom”,
rekla je Džina Vuds, direktor razvoja PLC.
Ne samo da Kraljevski par čini dela vredna poštovanja za dobrobit sveta, već
stiže da se posveti i drugim interesovanjima.
NJ.K.V. Prestolonaslednik Aleksandar II uživa u skijanju, jedrednju, skijanju
na vodi, ronjenju i podvodnoj fotografiji. On je bio šampion u skijanju u
Britanskoj vojsci 1972. godine. On se takođe interesuje za muziku, pozorište,
informacione tehnologije i aktuelna zbivanja.
Princeza Katarina govori grčki, engleski, francuski, a služi se španskim i
uči srpski. Njeno Kraljevsko Visočanstvo uživa u muzici, čitanju, svim
aktivnostima vezanim za decu, kuvanju, pozorištu i kros-kantri skijanju.
Nakon čestitanja i pitanja od strane novinara i gostiju, Kraljevski par je
završio posetu.
Međutim, pre odlaska, pustili su dva goluba, poklon Udruženja Beli golub.
Golubovi simbolizuju njihovu zaista iskrenu posvećenost miru.
“Bilo nam je veoma drago zbog njihove posete, iz više razloga, ali najviše
zbog iskazane strasti u poslu”, kaže Vudsova. “Princ i Princeza su veliki
humanitarni radnici. Kao što Princeza kaže: ‘Za rat uvek ima novca, a za mir
nema ni malo’ ”.
Vudsova nije jedini entuzijasta kada je u pitanju ovaj jedinstven događaj.
“Centru za proučavanje mira bilo je zaista zadovoljstvo da ugosti Princa i
Princezu od Srbije i da ukaže čast njihovim naporima da u svetu vlada mir”,
rekao je Tim Nejšon, suosnivač i izvršni director PLC-a. “Oni zaista rade bez
prestanka za sve nesrećne ljude u njihovoj zemlji, dok sa ljudima širom sveta
rade na uspostavljanju mostova saradnje”, dodao je on.

CROWN PRINCE
ALEXANDER AND CROWN PRINCESS KATHERINE OF YUGOSLAVIA VISIT
INDIANAPOLIS
Far, far away, in
the land of Yugoslavia, there lives Prince Alexander II, and his
beautiful Princess, by the name of Katherine. One day - April
25, 2007 - the Royal couple traveled to a far off land called
Indianapolis, Ind., where they arrived to accept the Ambassadors
for Children Peace Award.
Ambassadors for Children (AFC) is a not-for-profit, charitable
organization dedicated to servicing children around the world
through short-term humanitarian service trips and sustainable
programs. Each year an AFC award is given to someone in the
world that has made a significant impact in their country in
regard to disadvantaged, abused, or abandoned children.
This award, which was given at Indianapolis’s Peace Learning
Center (PLC) in Eagle Creek Park, was a part of the center’s
Peace Tree Dedication, and took place at 2 p.m. Wednesday
afternoon.
According to PLC, “Each leaf on the Peace Tree helps support
thousands of young people decrease violence and encourage
kindness.”
Becki Banet-Lucas, a local artist, created the tree.
According to their website, “PLC is an Indianapolis-based
community educational institution teaching peace building and
conflict resolution skills to youth and adults. PLC establishes
safe and common ways to deal with conflicts and differences.”
The site also says that PLC was started in 1997, and has
recently reached nearly 100,000 youth and adults.
Following The Peace Tree Dedication was a short press
conference, sponsored by AFC, featuring the Royal Couple and
additional speakers.
The Royal Couple was welcomed and presented with a glass globe
as a gift. Ben McKenzie, a gifted young artist, who specializes
in glass as his chosen art medium, created the globe.
McKenzie, who is currently a 14-year old freshman at Herron High
school, has been a student at the Indianapolis Art Center since
he was just 10 years old.
According to McKenzie, “The globe depicts the earth in
iridescent hues of blue.”
Other speakers, who also preceded the Royal Couple included Judy
O’Bannon, Former First Lady of Indiana; Tim Nation, Co-Founder
and Executive Director of PLC; and Dr. Sally Brown, President
and CEO of Ambassadors for Children.
Finally was the highlight of the afternoon: words from the
greatly anticipated Prince and Princess.
“We were honored to have the Royal Couple visit, and to hear
about their humanitarian efforts, particularly their work with
children,” Gina Woods, development director of PLC, said.
Not only does the couple do admirable deeds to improve the
world, but they also manage to have time for other interests as
well.
HRH Crown Prince Alexander II enjoys skiing, sailing, water
skiing, scuba diving and under-water photography. He was British
Army Ski Champion in 1972. His other interests include music,
theatre, information technology, and current affairs.
Princess Katherine speaks Greek, English, French and some
Spanish, and she is also studying Serbian. Her Royal Highness
enjoys music, reading, and all the activities that regard
children, cooking, the theatre and cross-country skiing.
After a series of greetings and questions from media and guests,
the couple concluded their visit.
Before they left however, they released two doves outside, which
were provided by the White Dove Association. The doves
symbolized their true dedication to peace.
“We were very pleased with their visit for many reasons, but
perhaps most importantly because of the passion they express for
their work,” Woods said. “Both the Prince and Princess are great
humanitarians. As the Princess said, ‘there is always money for
war, but none for peace.’”
Woods was not the only one enthusiastic about this one-of-a-kind
event.
“Peace Learning Center was excited to host the Prince and
Princess of Serbia to honor them for their work for peace in
this world,” Tim Nation, Co-founder and Executive Director of
PLC, said. “They work tirelessly for the unfortunate of their
country while building bridges with people around the world."

INDIJANAPOLIS – PRESTOLONASLEDNIK I PRINCEZA OD SRBIJE SU U INDIJANAPOLISU U
ČETVRTAK
Princ Aleksandar i Princeza Katarina obišli su dečiju bolnicu Rajli. Njihova
želja je da se uspostavi sestrinski odnos između Beograda i Indijanapolisa,
kojom prilikom bi se vršila razmena studenata i ideja, posebno u oblasti
medicine.
Princeza kaže da Srbija ima najveći mortalitet novorođenčadi u Evropi.
“Iako smo u sredini Evrope, naša situacija je jako teška. Samo jedna trećina
naše medicinske opreme radi, jedna trećina je stara preko 30 godina, a jedna
trećina uopšte ne radi. Iako imamo brilijantne doktore, jako je teško
funkcionisati i brinuti se o deci i pacijentima u celini, pod takvim uslovima.
Rajli bolnica je kao san. Volela bih da mogu da je ponesem kući”, rekla je ona.
To nije moguće, ali već sada je u toku humanitarni projekat. Ambasadori za
decu organizuju put u septembru od Indijanapolisa do Srbije. Kraljevski par će
primiti nagradu za mir Ambasadora za decu za 2007. godinu na Gala događaju u
centru grada.

godine, koji se održava u hali Primo
South Banquet. Naslednik jugoslovenskog prestola, Princ Aleksandar II rođen je
1945. godine u Engleskoj, gde
je njegov otac Kralj Petar II formirao Vladu u egzilu. Novorođeni
Prestolonaslednik kršten je u Vestminsterskoj Opatiji. Kumovi su bili Kralj
Džordž VI i Njeno Kraljevsko Visočanstvo Princeza Elizabeta (sada Njeno
Kraljevsko Veličanstvo Kraljica Elizabeta II).
Nj.K.V.
Prestolonaslednik Aleksandar obrazovanje je stekao u Švajcarskoj, zatim u Kulver
Vojnoj akademiji u Indijani, Škotskoj i Engleskoj. Kasnije je bio i u Britanskoj
Kraljevskoj vojnoj akademiji, a 1966. postao je oficir Britanske vojske.
Kraljevska porodica napustila je Jugoslaviju 1941. godine, kada je zemlja
napadnuta od strane Nemačke, a potom je protivzakonito sprečena da se vrati u
Jugoslaviju, od strane komunističkog režima koji je nešto kasnije prigrabio
vlast. Tokom godina, članovi Kraljevske porodice živeli su u egzilu u nekoliko
zemalja.
NJ.K.V.
Prestolonaslednik Aleksandar je oduvek bio vatreni branilac demokratije i
ljudskih prava. 1989. godine preuzeo je veoma aktivnu ulogu u nastojanju da
pomogne svom narodu da se otarasi višedecenijskog nasleđa komunizma, kao i
režima Slobodana Miloševića. Dao je nemerljiv doprinos procesu saradnje i
jedinstva među demokratskim političkim partijama, kako bi njegova zemlja postala
velika demokratija za sve građane, bez obzira na politička ubeđenja, versku ili
etničku pripadnost. Prestolonaslednik sa porodicom živi u Kraljevskom dvoru u
Beogradu od jula 2001. godine. Dosta je putovao i susreo se sa mnogim svetskim
liderima, političarima, parlamentarcima i predstavnicima svetskih tela.
1985. godine,
Prestolonaslednik Aleksandar oženio je Katarinu Batis iz grčke prestonice Atine.
Humanitarne aktivnosti Princeze Katarine su mnogobrojne, naročito od momenta
izbijanja konflikata u bivšoj Jugoslaviji. Njeno Kraljevsko Visočanstvo donela
je mnogo olakšanja deci, starijima i svim sugrađanima kojima je pomoć bila
potrebna, bez obzira na versku ili etničku pripadnost.

YUGOSLAVIA TO SERBIA WITH ROYAL FAMILY
Their Royal Highnesses Crown Prince Alexander and Crown Princess Katherine of
Serbia will be guests at the Kiwanis Club of Indianapolis meeting on April 27,
2007 to be held at Primo South Banquet Hall. Crown Prince Alexander II, heir to
the throne of Yugoslavia was born in 1945 in England where his father King Peter
II had established a government in exile. The newborn Crown Prince was baptized
in Westminster Abbey with Godparents King George VI and HRH Princess Elizabeth
(now HM The Queen Elizabeth II).
HRH Crown Prince Alexander was educated in Switzerland, Culver Military
Academy in Indiana, Scotland, and England. He later attended the British Royal
Military Academy and in 1966 was commissioned an officer in the British Army
The royal family left Yugoslavia in 1941 when the country was attacked by
Germany and were illegally prevented from returning to Yugoslavia by the
communist regime which later seized power. Through the years, they lived in
exile in several countries.
HRH Crown Prince Alexander has always been an ardent defender of democracy
and human rights. In 1989, he took a very active role in helping his people
shake off the legacy of decades of communist dictatorship and the regime of
Slobodan Milosevic. He has been a tireless contributor in the process of
cooperation and unity amongst the democratic political parties to make his
homeland a great democracy for all citizens regardless of political belief,
religion or ethnic origin. The Crown Prince and his family have been living in
The Royal Palace in Belgrade since July 2001. He has traveled extensively met
with numerous world leaders, politicians, parliamentarians, and world bodies.
In 1985, Crown Prince Alexander married Katherine Batis of Athens, Greece.
Princess Katherine’s charitable activities have been numerous, especially since
the conflict in the former Yugoslavia. Her Royal Highness has brought much
needed relief to children, the elderly and all those in need regardless of
religion or ethnic origin.

Their Royal Highnesses Crown Prince Alexander and Crown Princess Katherine of
Yugoslavia will be in town next month to receive the inaugural Ambassadors for
Children Peace Award. If their names sound familiar, it's because they are no
strangers to Indiana. The Crown Prince attended Culver Academy, they visited
Indianapolis in 2003 as guests at a gala hosted by Christel DeHaan and last fall
they showed up in Northwest Indiana to ask expatriates for some humanitarian
aid. This year's four-day trip includes museum visits, lunch with Gov. Mitch
Daniels, dinner with DeHaan and a trip to Bloomington, where one of their
granddaughters is a student. Ambassadors for Children president Sally Brown said
she's worked with the couple for several years on a variety of projects and
she's been impressed by their hard work and dedication to improving conditions
in their homeland. "There is so much need in Serbia, and the Royal Couple are
dedicated to truly making a difference in their country," Brown said. AFC
volunteers are invited to their home for tea and, when they can, the couple
sometimes accompanies the volunteers to orphanages and hospitals, according to
Brown.

THURSDAY.
Prince Alexander
and Princess Katherine toured Riley Hospital for Children. They
would like a sister city relationship between Belgrade and
Indianapolis where there is an exchange of students and ideas,
especially in the medical field.
The princess says
Serbia has the highest mortality of newborn babies in Europe.
"We are in the
middle of Europe yet our situation is very difficult. Only
one-third of our medical equipment works, one third is over 30
years old. One third doesn't work at all. So although we have
brilliant doctors it's very difficult to function and take care
of the children the patients in general under these conditions
Riley Hospital is a dream. I just wish I could take it home,"
she said.
That's not
possible, but a humanitarian effort is now underway.
