Friends of Canada hosted an informal Canada Day Celebration in the presence of Canadian Ambassador Robert Peck at 19.00 – 22.00 on Friday, July 3, 2015 at the official Canadian Residence for a BBQ. Participants were invited to support the chronic care hospice ‘Asilon Aniaton’.
Friends of Canada also bid a fond farewell to Ambassador Peck by presenting a farewell gift for him and Maria Pantazi-Peck – A ‘Dance your dreams’ print from Greek artist and FoC member Lila Koufopoulou (studio owner at Fine Arts Creations for Transformation & Wellbeing, https://www.facebook.com/lila.koufopoulou ). The Pecks were the instigators of Friends of Canada, Athens. Volunteer Dawn Lefakis ran the Canada Photo Booth.
