We are delighted
to have you join us each September. For nearly four decades, the
Greek Festival has endeavored to bring a touch of Greece to its
friends and supporters in Salt Lake City and the surrounding
communities.
Each year we
celebrate our cultural heritage and share our faith with the city at
this four-day event. Held at the Holy Trinity Cathedral campus in
downtown Salt Lake, the festival features live music and dancing
performances, authentic Greek cuisine, an outdoor marketplace and
"kafeneio", and plenty of family-friendly activities. In
addition to enjoying the Greek food, feeling the rhythm of the music,
and dancing a little, we also invite you to make time to take a tour
of the cathedral and visit our Hellenic Cultural Museum.
The annual
festival is our largest fundraiser and all proceeds benefit the
community to assist in funding maintenance and improvement of our two
church campuses, along with the community's many ministries, services
and activities. In addition to our capital needs, we make sizable
contributions from Festival proceeds to numerous charitable
organizations throughout the Salt lake Area.
On behalf of the
countless parish-volunteers and friends, we want to thank you for
sharing your time with us this weekend. Your support is deeply
appreciated.
We thank you very
much!
Σας
ευχαριστούμε πάρα πολύ!
Sincerely,
Dimitrios
Tsagaris, Parish Council President
