After Angie Hartmann, President of WISTA Hellas, welcomed everyone on behalf of the Board of Directors, a video was shown depicting WISTA Hellas’ highlights over the past two years in the form of a photographic and musical journey. After the dinner, a lucky raffle draw was held with gifts donated by the Association’s supporters. The evening ended on the dance floor where guests enjoyed themselves until the early morning hours. An evening to remember.
