Ενημέρωσα επίσης την ΠτΔ για τις περιοδείες μας, τη συγκινητική συμμετοχή του κόσμου, την άψογη συνεργασία με την Αυτοδιοίκηση & τις δράσεις εν όψει του εορτασμού. Την Επέτειο θα την τιμήσουμε όλοι μαζί. Με περηφάνεια για την ιστορία μας και αυτοπεποίθηση για το κοινό μας μέλλον. pic.twitter.com/CC6sNREsQP
