The afternoon activities began with a welcome by President Maria Hough, followed by an outstanding “Lord’s Prayer” sung by Christina D. Hromack, granddaughter of Philoptochos member Mary Elenitsas, and a blessing by Rev. Fr. Joseph Cervo, Protopresbyter.

A full-course luncheon included a wide variety food and concluded with the Greek dessert galatobourko (custard filling between buttered layers of filo dough) and a large variety of cookies.

Following the luncheon, Maria Hough introduced a series of models showing fashions from Prima Diva Boutique in Charleroi: Joanie Hamel, Angela Baker, Monica Kosko, Becky Stratigos, Madison Kosko, Gabriella Baker, and Brynley Moryc delighted the audience modeling variety of clothing.

Philoptohos president Maria Hough expressed appreciation to Daneen Troup., Deacon Vasilios, Dr. Rosalie Elenitsas, her committee, and the large group of women and men who attended the annual event.

Door prizes were the arrangements of fresh flowers that were the centerpieces on the tables.

Donated mystery gifts were available for sale. The proceeds from this single yearly fundraiser help to fund the many charities supported by the group.

Officers of the Philoptohos, in addition to President Hough, include Judy Georgagis, vice president; Diakonissa Mary Leogas, secretary; and Tommie Kosko, treasurer.

Committee members who served on the program are: Toni Marinos, Freeda Kootsouradis, Mary Calderone, Kassandra Bagiatis, Joanie Hamel, Jean Drizos, Marina Agrafiotis, Becky Hnaras, Annette Kubitza John Feher, Bob Kosko, Irene Chaliotis, Stephanie Buddle, and Irene Papantonakis.
