Membership, Charitable Goals Within Reach

Kali Xronia Brothers and Sisters.
Although we are still in the early-going
of 2013, the Sons of Pericles has accomplished quite a bit. We hosted our national
West Coast Greeks in LA Basketball
Tournament over Martin Luther King,
Jr. Weekend. A successful turnout there
helped to raise more than $2,000 for the
joint Sons and Maids National Project,
FARA (Friedreich’s Ataxia Research
Alliance). We have an ambitious goal to
raise $25,000 for the project. We are chipping away at our goal thanks to efforts of
numerous SOP chapters. For example,
Boston Chapter 27 raised more than
$4,000 with its New Year’s Eve event.
Furthermore, efforts to expand our outreach continue as we plan to reactivate
chapters in California, South Carolina,
and Maryland. Finally, congratulations
to the Albany Sons and Maids who put
on their annual Valentine’s Dance. The
dance continues to draw tremendous
attendance from across the nation.
In addition to our national project
goal, our goal to increase membership
remains in our sights. The Sons of
Pericles is experiencing great growth
in its membership. We are quickly
approaching 1,000-plus members, and
we welcome any leads of upstanding
young men, 14 to 27, to join our Order.
The Sons of Pericles has much to offer,
from new programs to scholarships to
membership reward. If you have any
questions or would like more information on how to start a new Sons of Pericles
chapter, please contact me directly at

Team of “Misfits” Captures
West Coast Hoops Tourney
The SOP “Greeks in LA” Weekend had another great
national turnout January 18-20, 2013 that featured a basketball tournament and charitable fundraiser. Eight teams
participated in a competitive tournament that saw a
team of “misfits” comprised of players from Albany, N.Y.;
Waterbury, Conn.; and Boston capture the championship.
The team nipped Salt Lake City by two points in overtime
for the title, which was held at the UCLA Student Activity
Center. Tournament All-Stars were: John Chipian, John
Googas, Nick Vukasovich, and Alex Holmes. Art Ververis
captured MVP honors. Participants also had a great time
at events, including the successful casino night that raised
money for FARA, the Junior Orders’ National Project.

48 of Albany, N.Y., thank the St. Sophia Community for its
generous donation of gifts for the children being treated

Disorders at Albany Medical Center. The chapters appreciate the support of the Arthur Kontogiannis Family and
