The Letter came in response to an invitation sent to the President to attend the Ireland launch of Call of the Forest, in Birr, County Offaly, unfortunately he was unable to attend due to travel commitments to Australia and New Zealand. The Woodland League had previously sent the President a copy of the film to watch privately and then requested a supporting quotation to resonate with the message of the film.
