Philoptochos will be preparing frozen pitas during the next two weeks to sell on Nov 14th.  If you would like to assist with preparations or volunteering the day of the event (Nov 14), please contact Leigh Cortesis  at (336)462-0179.  The ladies thank you in advance for your support.

The Festival Committee will also need volunteers to help prepare for and work the Greek Fest Express.  This event will be much more low key than our usual Festival and will offer a limited Drive-Thru only menu. More information will be coming soon.  If you would like to volunteer, please email GreekFestival@wsgoc.org.  IT TAKES A VILLAGE!
