Greek Independance DayUpdated: 03/21/2009 03:57 PM By: Web Staff SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Members of the Greek community raised the national flag outside Syracuse's City Hall Saturday to mark the country's Independence Day. Mayor Driscoll and others were on hand to celebrate the contributions Greeks have brought to our community and to learn a bit about their history. " People that are dedicated to maintaining family and church traditions and they have fought to do that in this great country. And as I said earlier this is one of the few nations on the planet where you are able to do that. Maintain your ethnic traditions and still be a good American," said Father Thomas Zaferes with Saint Sophia's Greek Orthodox Church. March 25 marks the 188th anniversary of the Greek revolt against the Ottoman Turk Empire that led to the country's independence. news10now.com/content/top_stories/136029/greek-independance-day/Default.aspx

I know Zeferes' son, he goes to my school. I tutored him for a while in the Classical Mediterranean course we were both in. Nice kid.
