BRIEFLY: GOS began as a
soccer club by the recent immigrants from Greece in the 1960s, but it soon turned into social
club
that
organized dinner dances to finance its activities and assist our
church. Eventually it became a
philanthropic and
cultural society
in the service of the Hellenic community of Central Ohio. We invite everyone who embraces Hellenic ideals to join us! |
Some of our current major cultural and philanthropic projects include: Greek Ethos magazine,
Classical Greek Theater productions, an annual Apokreatiko Dinner Dance Glendi, an annual
Community Picnic, Red Cross blood drives once or twice a year, meals for the indigent,
assistance in the local Paralympics for the handicapped, 2 to 3 times a year Symposia on
Greek history and heritage, etc. Surf through the pages for the details.
