The Dance Group “Helidonia”
did very well for their first year in
competition. They performed dances from
the region of Thrace. The younger
Primary Division was very competitive
this year and our dancers hung in
there with great enthusiasm and skill.
In addition to this, Vicky Hioureas, the
Director of the older group, won the
instrumental award for her skill in
playing of a drum for other dance
groups.
Both groups wore their first set of
costumes which were not rented but owned
by the Dance Groups. Parents and
children alike had a wonderful time
together experiencing the camaraderie
and cultural heritage of the festival.
