This year, up to 35 lucky teenagers, between the ages of 14-18 will again have the opportunity of a lifetime to travel to Greece under the auspice and guidance of both the Hellenic Military (HNDGS/ΓΕΕΘΑ) and the Pancretan Association of Melbourne. 

The trip will have two parts to it. 

The first part will take place between the 12th of September 2023 and the 25th of September 2023.

All accommodation, meals, entry fees and general expenses during this time will be funded by the Hellenic National Defence General Staff. Children will only be required to purchase their airfares and any additional spending money if they do so require. 

The second part of the trip will take place in Crete between the 26th of September and the 5th of October. Further details will be made available shortly.
