Aldo’s Democratic Club Christmas Party

Billy Chrissochos 20/12/2018. This was the first Christmas Party the Aldo’s Democratic Club co-hosted with the AHEPA Hermes Chapter 186 of Astoria, at Telly’s Taverna. We have our monthly meetings upstairs. Hermes President, George Zouvelos, myself, and AHEPA District 6 Governor Demi Pamboukes pictured. I pull double duty as secretary for Hermes and Director of Hellenism for District 6. I am also on the executive board of the Aldo’s. We had two special guests from the club come and speak to us. Hiram Monserrate, the Jackson Heights District Leader and former state senator. And also Councilman and President of Queens City Council, Jimmy Van Braner, candidate for Queens Boro President! The family and girls had a blast. Congratulations to the Aldo’s president Jerry Fragias and George Delis and the board for an amazing night. If you wish to join our Astoria AHEPA Hermes Chapter don’t hesitate to contact me.

The AHEPA family in Albany

Sunday 16 December 2018. Today the AHEPA family, which includes the Daughters of Penelope, Maids of Athena and Sons of Pericles along with the Philoptochos, joined forces to not only celebrate Christmas but to brighten the holidays for St. Basil’s orphans 🙂. Congratulations  to the Albany chapter and St. Sophia Church for hosting everyone! The maids donated (along with the sons and Ahepa) a sizable monetary amount for St. Basil’s orphans 🙂. I drove up with the District Governor Demi Pamboukes and Hempstead President Anastasios Stampolis who made great traveling companions. We cruised in the car to music from my bands Phoenix Reign and Porphyra too 🙂. And I was happy to tell everyone there about our Rock Opera, Anna and Vladimir. Billy Chrissochos
