The Panarcadian Association of South Australia “O Kolokotronis” celebrated its milestone 60th anniversary on September 23 with a dinner dance at the Cypriot Club in Hindmarsh, Adelaide.

During the event, the Association honoured its founding members and their significant contributors over the years.
