Yiassas Journey to Greece Family,


Congratulations to the Journey to Greece Volunteers at the Special Olympics! They contributed a combined total of over 1200 hours as volunteers for Spectator Services at the Aquatic Center and the Athletic Stadium at the OAKA Center! This was a rich, rewarding experience for our students to take part in the Special Olympics and help show the world the best that Greece has to offer! A wonderful week of experiences culminated in the 2011 Athens Special Olympics Closing Ceremonies for all of our volunteers! This was inspirational and brought the proceeding to a fantastic close with fireworks and beautiful entertainment for all!


The 2011 Athens Special Olympics truly brought out the best that Greece has to offer! The Greek people show their pride and their generosity in giving and volunteering for such an important event!  It is too bad that the news media only focuses on the negative news!  Our students are proud to be a part of such a wonderful event!


Attached, here, is the second Journey to Greece E-Bulletin. This edition features an overview of our week and pictures from the Special Olympics, Acropolis Museum, and the Closing Ceremonies.

 
Respectfully, Michael SavvasHellenext Next Generation Correspondent
