Greek Australian husband-and-wife Antonis and Vicky Petsis have helped restore community events in Tsaritsani, Greece, after donating sound equipment to support local cultural activities.
President of the Tsaritsani Municipal Council Menelaos Skantzos thanked the couple for their contribution, explaining that the community had been left without sound equipment after its previous system was destroyed by fire.
“When we told him that there is no sound in the Community anymore (it burned down) and we are forced to rent it ourselves because the Municipality does not provide it, Antonis volunteered to donate a pair of 15” speakers along with the necessary accessories to cover our events,” Skantzos said.
He said the donation would play an important role in supporting community gatherings and preserving local traditions.
“Your contribution is particularly valuable, as it contributes substantially to the preservation and promotion of the cultural heritage, customs and traditions of our country,” Skantzos said.
He added that the equipment would help strengthen cultural initiatives and ensure traditions continue to be shared with younger generations, expressing his gratitude and wishing the couple health and happiness.
