PAA INITIATIVES
Philanthropic Efforts Continue in Crete and the United States
W
John Manos
President PAA
[email protected]
e just arrived in Crete and are enjoying the
sights of our beautiful island. I am encouraged to hear that, since the recent elections, tourism is stronger than was originally expected.
Our agenda here is full of meetings with local officials and dignitaries, the Periferiarxi,
the Archbishop, and several non-profit organizations that we are giving money to from the
Relief for Crete fundraiser. These include: In
Rethymno and Chania, the Orphanage of Agio
Nektario and the Doctors' Free Clinic. In Sitia, at the Samarites.
In Heraklio, we have the annual Pancretan
Endowment Fund meeting and our representative, Ippokrati Beladaki, has made arrangements for a special event honoring Former
PAA President Kalimeraki at his home town village of Agio Mirona, where we will also be
meeting with the Archbishop, the Periferiarxi,
and the idrimata of Iliaktida. We will also visit
the SOS Children's Village of Crete.
Our final official event is the World Council
of Cretans meeting in Rethymno.
Several of our board members are here as
are many other PAA members. We are coordinating our attendance at all of these meetings
and functions to maximize the representation
of our organization.
It has been a full year since our convention
in Clearwater, Fla. and I can tell you that the
Board has been very busy working on a variety
of projects.
As we enter the second year of our administration, I am proud to share with you the accomplishments achieved by our Board and Committees in the past 12 months.
• The Philanthropic Committee reported donations exceeding $120,000 as a result of the "Relief for Crete" and the "AGAPE" fundraisers. Thanks to all of you for your contributions! • The Third Vice President, along with the PYA
President, are actively pursuing the formation
4
KPHTH | july/august 2012
of two new chapters—one in District III and one
in District VI.
• Leadership Conferences have been held with Districts IV, V and VI where dozens of ideas were generated for raising chapter and national revenues.
• The Mentor Program was introduced and implemented with initial positive results and success stories. I urge you to go to our web site and
sign up to be a mentor or mentee. I guarantee it
will be a worthwhile experience!
• The Scholarship committee has announced its
recipients and checks will be issued soon for distribution by the District Governors.
In addition to some of the programs listed above, our
focus for the next 12 months will continue to include:
• Archives collection and cataloging
• Donor tracking and recognition
• Minoan Village
• Documentation of past convention resolutions
• Leadership Conferences in Districts I, II, III
and VII
• Convention planning
New Initiatives:
• We will be implementing a new, exciting program, "The 300 Cretans," designed to have a tremendous
impact on our ability to support philanthropic, cultural and education programs for our members. •W
e are pursuing the creation of a new 501(c)(3)
entity within the PAA to support and strengthen
our General Account fund.
Of course, as our Board meets and discusses
the needs of our organization and its members,
new ideas will surface and we will make the necessary adjustments to ensure that our priorities
and resources are where they should be.
I will continue to keep you apprised on the
outcome of our meetings in Crete and on the status of our current and planned programs. In the
meantime, enjoy your summer. K
Εντονη η παρουσία τής Παγκρητικής στην Κρήτη
Μ
όλις φθάσαμε στην Κρήτη και απολαμβάνομε τα
αξιοθέατα του όμορφου νησιού μας. Χαίρομαι που
ακούω ότι, μετά τις πρόσφατες εκλογές, η τουριστική
κίνηση είναι πολυ μεγαλύτερη από ό, τι αρχικά
αναμενόταν.
Το πρόγραμμά μας εδώ είναι γεμάτο από συναντήσεις
με τίς τοπικές αρχές και τοπικούς αξιωματούχους, τον
Περιφεριάρχη, τον Αρχιεπίσκοπο, αντιπροσώπους
πολλών μη κερδοσκοπικών και φιλανθρωπικών
οργανώσεων στούς οποίους παραδίδομε τα χρήματα που
εχουν συγκεντρωθει από την πρωτοβουλία της επιτροπής
«Ανακούφιση για την Κρήτη». Αυτά περιλαμβάνουν,
στο Ρέθυμνο και τα Χανιά, στο Ορφανοτροφείο του
Αγίου Νεκταρίου και στήν Κλινική για Δωρεάν Ιατρική
Περίθαλψη, στη Σητεία, στο ιδρυμα Σαμαρίτες.
Στο Ηράκλειο, έχουμε την Ετήσια συνάντηση Παγκρητικής. Ο εκπρόσωπός μας, Ιπποκράτης
Μπελαδάκης, έχει συμβάλει στην διοργάνωση για μια
ειδική εκδήλωση προς τιμήν τού Πρώην Προέδρου της
PAA, Καλημεράκη, στον τόπο καταγωγής του, στόν Αγιο
Μύρωνα. Εκεί θα συναντηθούμε με τον Αρχιεπίσκοπο και
τον Περιφεριάρχη, και επίσης θα επισκεφθούμε τα Ιδρύματα
Ηλιαχτίδα και τα Παιδικά Χωριά SOS της Κρήτης.
Η τελευταία επίσημη εκδήλωση μας θά είναι η συνάντηση τού Παγκοσμίου Συμβουλίου Κρητών στο Ρέθυμνο.
Αρκετά από τα μέλη του Διοικητικού Συμβουλίου
μας είναι εδώ καθώς και πολλά άλλα μέλη της ΠΕA.
Βρισκόμαστε σε συνεχή επαφή και συντονιζομε το
πρόγραμμά μας ουτως ωστε να εχομε την απαραιτητη
συμμετοχή και παρουσία σε όλες τις συναντήσεις και
εκδηλώσεις για την οσο το δυνατόν μεγαλύτερη και
εντονώτερη εκπροσώπηση τής οργανωσής μας.
Με επιτυχία ολοκληρώθηκε ο πρώτος χρόνος
τού Δ.Σ.
Έχει συμπληρωθει ενας χρόνος από το συνέδριο μας
στο Clearwater της Φλώριδας, και μπορώ να σας
επιβεβαιώσω ότι το Διοικητικό Συμβούλιο εργάστηκε
πολυ για την πραγματοποίηση ποικιλων προγραμμάτων.
Καθώς μπαίνουμε στο δεύτερο χρόνο της διακυβέρνησής μας, με υπερηφάνεια μοιράζομε μαζί σας τις
επιτυχίες πού επιτεύχθηκαν από το Διοικητικό Συμβούλιο
και τίς Επιτροπές μας τους τελευταίους δώδεκα μήνες.
• Η Επιτροπή Φιλανθρωπικού μαζεψε δωρεές άνω των
120,000 δολαρίων, από τον ερανο για την «Ανακούφιση
για την Κρήτη" και για το ιδρυμα "ΑΓΑΠΗ". Σάς
ευχαριστώ όλους για τη συμβολή σας!
• Ο τρίτος αντιπρόεδρος, μαζί με τον Πρόεδρο της
Παγκρητικής Νεολαίας, επιδιώκουν ενεργά την δημιουργία δύο νέων συλλόγων - ένα στη 3η και ενα στην 6η Περιφέρεια.
• Οι συνεδριάσεις τών αξιωματούχων τών συλλόγων
έχουν διεξαχθεί στην 4η , 5η και 6η Περιφέρεια, όπου
δεκάδες ιδέες έχουν δημιουργηθεί για την συγκεντρωση
χρημάτων σε ολα τα επίπεδα.
• Το Πρόγραμμα Μέντορ παρουσιάστηκε και εφαρμόστηκε με τα πρώτα θετικά αποτελέσματα και επιτυχίες.
Σας συνιστώ να πάτε στην ιστοσελίδα μας και να
γίνετε ειτε μέντορας ή να ζητήσετε να επωφεληθειτε
απο την συγκεκριμμένη βοηθεια την οποια προσφέρει
το πρόγραμμα αυτο. Σας εγγυώμαι ότι θα είναι μια
σημαντική εμπειρία!
• Η επιτροπή Υποτροφιών ολοκληρωσε τις απαιτούμενες
ενέργειές της, οι επιταγές θα εκδοθούν σύντομα και θα
δωθουν στους Κυβερνήτες τής κάθε περιφέρειας.
Ποικίλα και ενδιαφέροντα τα μελλοντικά σχέδια
τής ΠΕΑ
Εκτός από τα προγράμματα που αναφέρονται
παραπάνω, η προσοχή μας για τους επόμενους 12 μήνες
θα συνεχίσει να περιλαμβάνει:
• Συλλογή Αρχείων και καταγραφή
• Συλλογή τών μεχρι τώρα δωρητών και αναγνώρισή τους
• Μινωικό Χωριό
• Τεκμηρίωση των προηγούμενων ψηφισμάτων τών
μέχρι στιγμής συνεδριων της ΠΕΑ.
• Συνεδρίαση Αξιωματουχων στήν 1η , 2η , 3η και 7η Περιφέρεια.
• Οργάνωση τού συνεδρίου της ΠΕΑ
Νέες πρωτοβουλίες:
• Θέτομε σε εφαρμογή ένα νέο, συναρπαστικό πρόγραμμα,
"Οι 300 Κρήτες", σχεδιασμένο για να προσφέρει τεράστια
βοήθεια και στήριξη στα φιλανθρωπικά, πολιτιστικά και
εκπαιδευτικά προγράμματα για τα μέλη μας.
• Επιδιώκουμε τη δημιουργία μιας νέας 501 (c) (3) οντότητας
μέσα στην PAA για να υποστηρίξει και να ενισχύσει τη
χρηματοδότηση του Γενικού μας λογαριασ μού.
Φυσικά, κάθε φορά πού συνεδριάζει το συμβούλιο
μας και συζητά τις ανάγκες τής οργανωσής και των
μελών μας, παρουσιάζοντε νέες ιδέες και κάνομε τις
αναγκαίες προσαρμογές ωστε να διασφαλίσομε ότι οι
πρωτεραιότητες μας είναι εκεί όπου θα έπρεπε να είναι.
Θα συνεχίσομε να σας ενημερώνομε σχετικά με την
έκβαση των συναντήσεων μας στην Κρήτη και για
την κατάσταση των σημερινών και μελλοντικων
προγραμμάτων μας. Στο μεταξύ, απολαύστε το
καλοκαίρι σας! K

PAA Treasurer
As before, this report contains
[email protected]
data only for the General Operating Account and the KPHTH magazine account. I am not reporting any income or expenditures for the Scholarship, Educational/Cultural and
Philanthropic accounts for two reasons. First, there are
space limitations and second, these accounts generally
do not run surpluses or deficits. All the monies coming in are subsequently sent out. I will try to publish a
summary of these accounts in the future.
Last, I will try my best to answer any specific questions concerning this report or other financial matters.
Please send questions via email ([email protected]). K
υτή είναι η ετήσια αναφορά του

possibilities seem endless. [email protected]
However, when one is looking to experience Crete beyond the island, our chapters offer the opportunity to live the experience here in America.
Our incredible chapters, through their volunteer members
and community involvement, work to continue our legacy,
proudly communicating our heritage and culture to a new
generation of Cretans.
Over the last few years, with plenty of enthusiasm and a
good amount of planning, a new vision of communicating
with the membership was quietly embraced. Two individuals who broke new ground in communications for the PAA
include Editor Emeritus Niko Katsanevakis, who introduced
our organization to Facebook, providing an online platform
to share KPHTH and all things Crete, and former IT Chair
Stacy Marakis, who created our first structured email database for an electronic newsletter, which reaches thousands of
PAA/PYA members and friends in moments. It's individuals
like this who give more than is expected that make us great as
an organization and we should always be thankful. Although
these communication shifts sound simple enough, they are
not, because their implementation is seismic and bring us ever
closer so much quicker. Although the days of phone tree calls
or waiting to hear news via snail mail aren't gone, we are being challenged to improve, adapt or be gone. To advance in
this challenge the Editorial Board stands by its commitment to
produce a KPHTH periodical worthy of the Pancretan legacy
that will always serve to preserve the journey of the Cretan experience here in America and around the world—in
print and, more importantly, in the future, digitally.
Let me personally express my sincere gratitude to Stacy
Marakis for all her dedication and hard work within the
organization as the head of the Information Technology
Committee. We are extremely fortunate that she will continue volunteering in other capacities within the organization, such as the Cretan Alumni Network committee and
the Agape Fundraiser Committee. I want to also thank
Niko Katsanevakis for all his years of service to the PAA.
KPHTH magazine will never be the same because of his
work and the PAA is grateful for his positive influence and
energy in what he has accomplished. Niko has pledged to
continue to support the success of KPHTH, bridging the
past with the future endeavors. It's great to know that both
Niko and Stacy will continue to volunteer their time in
making the organization a great success.
We are also really excited to welcome the organization’s newest and probably youngest board member, our
IT Committee Chair Nicholas Polychronakis. With Niko's
arrival in his new capacity and in collaboration with the
IT committee, we can be certain he will continue the exceptional strategy that Stacy implemented. Niko's immediate goals are to update the organization’s web site content and email services.
In closing, let me introduce and welcome the new Executive Editor Alexa Ganos and her team, Amalia Deligiannis
and Cali Pappas. They are three dynamic individuals who,
combined, bring many years of experience and a plethora
of ideas with new and fresh perspectives. With this issue
you will begin to experience the transformation that embraces the world of media. It's exciting! And, my hope is
that you will enjoy it. K

From the PAA President John Manos
I
would like to thank our Editor Niko Katsanevakis for his contributions over the past several years to KPHTH Magazine and to our organization. During his tenure, the magazine was elevated to a new level and we could not have
done it without him. We wish him luck in his new endeavors.
We welcome our new Editiorial team, Alexa, Amalia and Cali, and look forward to working with them to make our
magazine even better. We commit to help and support them as much as we can to make KPHTH Magazine the best ever.

ανυψώθηκε σε ένα νέο επίπεδο πού δεν θα μπορούσε να φθάσει χωρίς αυτόν. Του ευχόμαστε καλή τύχη
στα νέα του σχέδια.
Καλοσωρίζομε τη νέα Εκδοτική μας ομάδα, "Αλέξα, Αμαλία και Καλλίοπη" και ανυπομονώ να
συνεργαστώ μαζί τους για να κάνομε το περιοδικό μας ακόμα καλύτερο. Δεσμευόμαστε να τίς βοηθήσουμε

NIKO KATSANEVAKIS
Former KPHTH Magazine Editor Moves On
ERASMIA NOVOTNY AND HELEN RANNEY
N
iko Katsanevakis became the fifth
KPHTH Magazine Editor to take
on the task of editing and publishing
our great magazine. He followed the
footsteps of other great editors, replacing the existing editor in 2001. Niko
Katsanevakis came in and immediately
Niko Katsanevakis
made his mark by recommending and
implementing significant changes. Under the direction of then
President Stavros Semanderes, the magazine was transformed.
It may be hard to believe, especially for our younger readers,
that KPHTH was printed in black and white for more than eight
decades. The magazine really came to life when Niko found a
way to print it in full color with minimum cost. Under his tenure, more chapter news photos, announcements and event
photos (the center spread) were added at no cost. (Another
little known fact: Chapters and members used to have to pay
extra to include a photo in announcements and chapter news.)
Shortly after becoming editor, he also took on the role
of official PAA photographer, documenting official events
throughout the country and sharing them in KPHTH. While
Editor of KPHTH, current and past issues were made available on our web site as were his photographic chronicles of
our conventions.
Over time, more articles of interest were added, the number
of pages was increased and, for the first time, our Christmas
issue was published in color from cover to cover. What Niko
brought to the PAA was a wealth of knowledge of the publishing
business and technical know-how that made all these changes
possible with very little additional cost to the PAA.
During his time with the PAA, he met and married his beautiful wife Maria and they added Haroula to their family a few
years later. As his family grew, so did his business. In addition
to being the KPHTH editor and business manager, he helped
publish our much-acclaimed 75th Anniversary Album. Outside
the PAA, he worked with several restaurants in New York and
became known as “The Menu Guy.” He also did freelancing for
many other organizations and businesses.
Niko recently left the PAA to pursue new career opportunities in the New York area. We wish him the best and hope that
he values the time he spent with the PAA as much as we value
his many contributions. K
Information Technology Update
T
he Pancretan Assocation of America would like to welcome the
organization’s new Information Technology Chair Nicholas
Polychronakis. In this capacity Nicholas, in conjunction with the
Information Technology Committee, is responsible for the direct
operation of all electronic information systems that the PAA uses.
Nicholas’ immediate goals in this capacity will be to update the
organization’s web site content. In the future, he would like to redesign the web site.
The PAA also would like to express its gratitude to Stacy Marakis for all her dedication and hard work within the organization.
Stacy previously served as the head of the Information Technology Committee. She will continue volunteering in other capacities
Nicholas Polychronakis
within the organization, such as the Cretan Alumni Network committee and the Agape Fundraiser Committee.
The PAA would like to thank not only Nicholas and Stacy, but all the people who volunteer their time in making
the organization a great success. K

KPHTH Magazine: Fresh Look-New Approach
O
n behalf of the editorial team of KPHTH Magazine,
we would like to welcome readers to the newest issue. As you read, you will notice updated page designs
throughout the magazine that complement the continuing growth of the Pancretan Association of America and
seek to highlight both members and Cretans worldwide.
As part of the magazine’s design updates, a specific focus was on making sure the publication continues to serve
as a time capsule of the organization’s people and events.
To this end, PAA event photos have been looked at in a
fresh light. From now on, captions with names of event
participants will be included with photographs, along with
a short description of the events. This way, 10, 20 and even
50 years from now, people can look back at issues and learn
not only about the events of the organization, but also
know who the people were that participated.
Moving forward, KPHTH Magazine will include
an array of stories about the people that make the PAA
great, our culture, heritage and the island homeland.
We will include news from the district governors, executive directors and chapters, and will also recognize those
people behind the scenes who contribute greatly to your
local chapters.
In addition, we would like to take a human interest
approach to covering PAA members and highlight the
special work that PAA members do outside the organization, highlighting for example, the entrepreneurs, scientists, artists, doctors and musicians, who made their own
success stories in America. With seven districts and more
than 80 chapters in the United States, we know these
people exist, but we can only find them and share their
stories with your help.
Please submit articles about the people within your
organizations that deserve recognition. This is also a perfect opportunity for people to hone their writing skills
or give aspiring writers a great way to add to their portfolio. Articles can be submitted in Greek and/or English.
Of course with the contributed articles from you the
members, we also need to collect quality, high-resolution
digital photos that will help showcase the article. If you
cannot provide images, we will assist in adding in the
photography needed.
Besides human interest stories, we would like you
to report to us any interesting Cretan events that you
think are worth noting. Do you know about a new scholarship opportunity for Cretan American students to study
abroad? Are there new hot spots in Crete that you discovered on your recent visit to Crete? Is there a person in
Cretan history who has historically been ignored but you
think is worth writing about? Just send us an email to
[email protected] and we will research it further.
So please, with your proactive approach to submitting short articles about Crete or Cretan events within
your chapters and districts, we will keep the pages full.
And remember to always send us information about upcoming events at [email protected].
You will find KPHTH Magazine’s editorial policy and
guidelines for submitting articles, images and letters on
page 38. We look forward to hearing from you so that
together we can continue to chronicle the endeavors of
Cretan people worldwide and the work of the PAA for
generations to come. K

E
ach year Greek magazines customarily publish a tribute to the
Top 10, 15 or 20 beaches of Greece.
Among them from Crete are Bali,
Preveli and ... well that's it! Certainly "hip" Cretans know something
about the beaches of Crete. This is
a photographic tour of some of the
most beautiful beaches and coastlines of the island, including Bali and
Preveli. A tribute, of course, is not an
exhaustive list since it’s very difficult
to make a final selection. The coastline of our island is endless and each
person always has their personal favorite, though I suspect that we all
have a "secret paradise" for private
use. The following is a list of some
of the idyllic beaches in Crete to visit
next summer.

Balos – Cape of Gramvousa
The most famous beach and well worth it. With all shades of blue and green, this warm shallow
lagoon is bursting with sea shells. One can access the beach after a 30 minute walk, or you can take the
boat departing from Kastelli Kissamos.
Μπάλος – ακρωτήριο Γραμβούσα
Η πιο διάσημη αλλά το αξίζει. Όλες οι αποχρώσεις του μπλε και του πράσινου, ζεστή ρηχή λιμνοθάλασσα
διάστικτη με όστρακα, πρόσβαση με ημίωρη πορεία ή με καραβάκι από το Καστέλι Κισάμου.
2
Menies – Cape Diktynna
Here you can visit the temple of ancient Diktynna, where processions of believers from the entire
known world visited to devote their vows. Access to this beach is difficult. It takes 45 minutes on a relatively demanding dirt road to get to Menies, or you can take the boat departing from from Platanias.
Μένιες – ακρωτήριο Δίκτυννα
Εδώ βρισκόταν το ιερό της Αρχαίας Δίκτυννας που επισκέπτονταν πομπές πιστών απ’ όλο τον γνωστό
κόσμο για να αφιερώσουν τα τάματά τους. Σαρανταπέντε λεπτά σχετικά απαιτητικός χωματόδρομος ή
καραβάκι από Πλατανιά.

Πύργος – Γαύδος
Για τους τυχερούς σκαφάτους ή για τους τολμηρούς
περιπατητές, που θα αψηφήσουν την κακοτράχαλη και μακριά
διαδρομή. Νερό, ταβέρνες, περίπτερα δεν υπάρχουν κοντά,
μόνο ήλιος, θάλασσα, γαλήνη και απομόνωση.

Krios – Kountoura
The most southwestern part of Crete. Crystal clear, icy waters welcome
you after the walk on the mountain path. You can certainly drive all the way
to Krios as well.
Κριός – Κουντούρα
Η νοτιοδυτικότερη γωνία της Κρήτης. Κρυστάλλινα, παγωμένα νερά,
ευπρόσδεκτα μετά από πορεία στο μονοπάτι που οδηγεί εδώ. Φτάνει και το
αυτοκίνητο βέβαια.

Pirgos – Gavdos
This locale is for the lucky captains of small boats or for the adventurous
walkers who are willing to defy the wild and long route. Drinking water, taverns or kiosks are nowhere to be found—just sun, sea, serenity and seclusion.

Preveli – South Rethymno
The most photographed beach of Crete. Early in the morning and late in the afternoon
when the day trips end you'll understand why the "hippies" once considered this to be
the spiritual center of meditation and inner peace.
Πρέβελη – νότιο Ρέθυμνο
Η πλέον φωτογραφημένη παραλία της Κρήτης. Νωρίς το πρωί και αργά το απόγευμα, όταν
αποχωρήσουν οι μονοήμερες εκδρομές, θα καταλάβετε γιατί κάποτε οι «χίππηδες» την

(yes, same theme) in New York City with some of our worldrenowned chefs from the area. We've asked all of you to come
west the past two times, so we're heading east next time. As
soon as we confirm the dates, we will send out an email blast
and post it on Facebook (just search Cretan Alumni Network
and join our group). These mini reunions are a great chance
to bring all of us together, to introduce our children to the
PYA/PAA and to just have a lot of fun. It's a win-win all the
way around.
I also wanted to update you that we are working behind
the scenes to put together the Professional/Business Directory. We hope to launch the program in October and will be
soliciting ad support (at very, very reasonable prices) starting in August or September at the latest. We will send you
information via the enewsletter and Facebook.
If you can't join us in New York or at any of the PAA Board
Meetings or Leadership Conferences over the next year, plan
on heading to Akron, Ohio, next summer for the PAA/PYA
Convention. We anticipate a huge turnout and we will be planning CAN specific events. Look for more information soon.
Happy Summer everyone!
Your CAN Committee,

he Cretan Alumni Network reunited once again this
summer in Long Beach, Calif., during the PYA Summer
Conference. Friends from Chicago, New York, Denver, San
Francisco, Marin County, Calif., Clearwater, Fla., and other
cities gathered for a mini-reunion. It was huge success.
We joined the youth at their Panigiri on Friday afternoon
in the Temecula Valley and learned how to make Tsikoudia,
how to prepare a lamb to be cooked antichristo, and how to
prepare (and eat) Cretan guacamole. Thanks to the hardworking southern California Cretans, we ate a wide variety
of delicious food, including vrasto, Cretan pilafi, loukanika,
roasted pork and lamb. It was one delicious meal after another. We also sang, danced and even shot "guns" to celebrate
our time in the mountains. It was a place that truly took your
breath away. The best part: the philoxenia and parea.
The next day we joined in on the Glendi in Anaheim and
ate all over again (Are you noticing a theme?), sang, danced
and brought in the sun the next morning, dancing in Long
Beach. Our thanks again to the Psilorites Cretan Youth and
all of the Cretans of southern California for their incredible
hospitality and all of your hard work to make this event such
a success.
We hope many of you will join us for another CAN event
this fall. We're hoping to put together a Culinary Weekend

A Brief History
The Daughters of Minos
ANNA MAKRIS AND SYLVIA DEWEY
W
ith the largest concentration of Cretans in Utah residing in Bingham Canyon, Price, Columbia, Sunnyside, Hiawatha and Helper, the Cretans organized a Cretan
Chapter. Its primary purpose was to provide financial assistance to families whose husband, father or relative was
killed in a mining accident. A secondary goal was to encourage members to become productive American citizens.
The chapter originally was called the Pan Cretan Union,
which in 1918 became the Minos Chapter of Salt Lake City.
The members of this chapter for the most part were men.
The Arcade Chapter was already formed in Price. It later
dissolved in the 1980s at which time some of its members
joined other Cretan chapters.
In 1929, the Minos Chapter began affiliating with a Cretan chapter from the East Coast and together they established the Pancretan Association of America (PAA) with Mr.
Kalamerakis as its first president. During 1939 and 1940,
the first PAA constitution and bylaws were developed by
Mike Manatos and Emanual Salevouris under the leadership of Kalamerakis.
Although the women were supportive of the Minos Chapter, they felt some level of independence was necessary to
meet their needs. Maria Takis and Stella Pantelakis Mamalakis began making door-to-door visits to Cretan homes to
encourage women to organize a chapter in Salt Lake City.
24
KPHTH | july/august 2012
The Daughters of Minos Chapter was formally organized in
1938, adapting the constitution and bylaws of the PAA, until
developing their own bylaws in the 1980s.
Initially, membership dues were 25 cents a year. Meetings were held in the members’ homes. In the mid 1950s,
the meetings were moved to the basement of Holy Trinity
Church. Their first event was a horosperitha in 1939, where
members and their families were invited. A comedy was performed and everyone danced to records of Cretan music.
During the 1950s and 1960s, one of the most memorable events the Daughters of Minos planned was an annual
horosperitha in which members of all Cretan chapters and
their families were invited. At this event, a “kasela” was raffled at the end of the night. This was a cedar chest, purchased
by the Daughters of Minos for approximately $60.00. It contained handmade linens such as pillowcases, tablecloths,
afghans, doilies and other items donated by the women of
the chapter. The linens would be draped over the chest to
display all the handiwork. Raffle tickets were sold four for
$1.00. Members would bring cheese and other side dishes.
The women would even tend their own bar during this event.
While providing financial support and volunteering their
service to various church programs, the leadership also began
planning innovative social activities. The women wanted to
become part of the upscale American mainstream. To achieve
this status, they began sponsoring
a membership tea at Prophet Elias
Church, which would include a musical performance. During the early
1960s, the Mother’s Day luncheon
became an annual event and it was
held at the Athenian. The program
for this event would include children dancing, reading Greek poems
and young women modeling their
grandmother’s wedding dresses.
This event evolved into today’s well
attended luncheon and fashion
show, which receives considerable
support from the local Greek community.
Later, the Daughters of Minos
began taking trips to Wendover—
with the first trip filling up three
buses. They also held bake sales at
the local malls, selling Greek pastries. Some of these fundraisers
would only gross $20 in sales.
During the early years of the
Greek Festival, the Daughters of
Minos assumed responsibility for
cooking loukoumades. Today, they
are responsible for preparing and
cooking the dolmathes.
Members have always strived to
provide quality in everything they
set out to do. This has led to prosperity our Chapter enjoys today. K

DOLMATHES
One Daughters of Minos tradition is to make dolmathes for Holy Trinity Cathedral’s annual Greek festival in Salt Lake City, Utah. The following dolmathes
recipe is a scaled-down version of the recipe that the Daughters of Minos uses
when preparing dolmathes for the festival. The original recipe calls for 100
pounds of ground beef! Please note, the ingredients can be adjusted to taste.
Ingredients:
2 lbs. ground beef
1 1�2 cups rice
3�4 cup tomato puree
3�4 cup diced tomatoes

From the "Liars of Crete" to the Patron Saint of Samaria
DEMETRIUS MAZACOUFA
I
t was a simple request from our parish priest but one that moved our
chapter to make a decision not normally found on a meeting agenda.
“Could you please tell me the name of
your chapter’s patron saint?” asked
Fr. Christos Mars, from the Cathedral of the Annunciation in Atlanta.
“I think I have an idea, but I am not
sure,” he continued.
Thus began a journey to have
Samaria, Atlanta’s Pancretan Association chapter, identify its patron saint. The call to Samaria was
not the only one he was making. It
seems that Fr. Christos was contacting all community organizations
to find out the patron saint of each
group. The Cathedral of the Annunciation, Atlanta’s first Greek Orthodox Church, had commissioned a
special icon that would include the
image of the various patron saints of
all community organizations—both
church connected and those that are
primarily Hellenic. Samaria, as were
all the rest of the organizations, was
asked for that information.
The question from Fr. Christos
seemed so natural that I assumed all
organizations had their own particular patron saint, even though I knew
our chapter did not. Maybe there was one dedicated
by the PAA for Samaria to convey as our chapter’s patron saint, since I did not want to offend protocol by
offering a name different from one already declared
by the PAA. A quick inquiry came up with no answer
identifying a saint for the national organization, so it
fell upon the local membership to answer this question on its own.
Over the course of a few weeks, various members of Samaria submitted their ideas. What about
St. Minas, suggested someone, since he is a patron
saint of Heraklion. Another insisted that it had to be
26

in the icon. The format is as such: Christ is centered
in the icon, nested on the trunk of the Tree of Knowledge. The saints are suspended like ornaments from
the many branches of the Tree. The organizations represented on the icon range from nationally recognized
groups to local organizations. This includes the Mother Lodge chapter of AHEPA, which was founded in Atlanta. The group chose the Prophet Elias because his
feast day is celebrated just two days before the founding date AHEPA. It also includes organizations such as
the Cathedral Choir, which chose St. Kassiani, the Byzantine hymnographer. What started as a simple question several months earlier became a voyage that led
the membership to learn more about and appreciate
St. Titus, the first bishop of Crete and now the patron
saint of the Samaria Chapter of the PAA. K
SPECIAL REPORT
Saint Titus
larly called meeting of the chapter. The final decision
rested in the hands of the membership and, despite
the many suggestions that had been offered leading
up to that meeting, the vote taken was unanimous: St.
Titus was chosen to be our chapter’s patron saint. He
was a student of St. Paul and was given the task by that
Apostle of bringing Christianity to Crete. His story
was memorable and, as the first bishop of Crete and
considered by many as the patron saint of the island, it
was appropriate to embrace him as the patron saint of
Samaria. (Read more about St. Titus below.)
The Annunciation’s icon was finished in December 2011. After its consecration at the altar of the Cathedral, it was displayed at the entrance of the church
office for all to view. In all there are 40 patron saints
representing their respective organizations depicted
Learning About St. Titus
Forty patron saints representing local community organizations in
Atlanta, including Samaria of PAA, are represented in the above
icon. The icon was commissioned by the Cathedral of Annunciation.
St. Andrew, as he was considered to be the most famous. Someone else urged that we can’t forget the
Agiai Deka, the 10 Cretans who were martyred by the
Romans. The list went on, for there were as many suggestions as there are individual saints embraced by
the many Cretan villages, cities and regions—all with
their own άγιος. It was becoming obvious that something seemingly simple would involve a more formal
determination.
The issue was decided eventually by vote at a regu-
Titus was a convert to Christianity. He became a disciple of St. Paul and was one of the chosen companions of the Apostle in his journey to the Council
of Jerusalem and his fellow-laborer in many
apostolic missions. From the second epistle, which St. Paul sent by the hand of
Titus to the Corinthians, we gain an
insight into his character and an understanding of the strong affection
which St. Paul held for him. Titus had
been commissioned to carry out a
two-fold office, needing much firmness, discretion and charity. First,
he was to be the bearer of a severe
rebuke to the Corinthians, who were
becoming scandalous and whose
faith had begun to waiver. St. Paul anxiously awaited the result and wrote: "I
had no rest in my spirit, because I found
not Titus, my brother." At last Titus brought
the good news that he had been successful with
this mission to Corinth. The second mission was to
go to Crete. We have a further insight into the attitude of St.
Paul toward the people of the island which is found in The Epistle of Paul
to Titus: “One of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, Cretans are
always liars, evil beasts, [and] idle gluttons.” Titus served the island well,
as he finally left as a bishop in Crete and died in peace there.
Saint Titus is the
patron saint of the PAA's
Samaria Chapter in Atlanta.

History of Phalasarna
Ιστορία της Φαλάσαρνα
halasarna was first inhabited in the late Neolithic
period. From this first early civilization, relatively

ural catastrophe, the area was abandoned, and people
did not return for over 2000 years.
Dorians found Phalasarna again around the 8th to
7th centuries B.C. and built a city over the ruins of the
prehistoric site. The new city-state had laws, a complex
system of social support, and a cultural exchange with
peoples of the East. The strength of the local economy came in part from the people’s skill in navigating
the sea, which led Phalasarna eventually to become a
naval power. Yet the Phalasarnians were also famous
as soldiers, and their skill in military arts created a
demand for them as mercenaries, and as advisors to
military commands from Macedonia and Persia.
In the 4th century B.C., the citizens struck gold.
Persian money aiming to stop the march of Alexander
the Great against the Persian Empire allowed Phalasarnians to fortify the city. Ancient geographers took
note of the artificial closed harbor, which was carved
out of a lagoon and ringed around on all sides with
quays, walls and towers. Phalasarna traded across the
Mediterranean and had especially close relations with
the Spartans and the Phoenicians. Indeed the engineering design of the harbor is Phoenician, while details

of the architecture are Greek. The city minted its own
silver and bronze coins. The citizens worshipped goddess Dyktina at a temple atop the acropolis. Workshops
produced ceramic vases that showed a mastery of Attic
techniques, and local artists carved sculptures. Finally,
Phalasarna was recognized for superiority at sea, and its
harbor gave it a place in the history of Hellenistic culture.
However continual wars against strong neighboring city-states weakened Phalasarna, and frequent
earthquakes and sea-level changes damaged the buildings and infrastructure. By the 1st century B.C., the
new buildings were unimpressive shadows of the
earlier monuments. The citizens became pirates and
stirred the anger of Rome. In 67 B.C., Phalasarna was
leveled by an invading Roman army determined to restore order to the Mediterranean sea lanes.
A few people must have survived the Roman onslaught, and a small community remained in Phalasarna until a new natural catastrophe. In 365 A.D.,
one of the greatest earthquakes in recorded history raised Phalasarna 6.5 meters (about 21 ft.) out
of the sea in a few seconds, making its once-famous
harbor forever useless while what remained of the city
flooded by a tsunami, buried in mud, and lost for another 1500 years.

κτηρίων στην κορυφή της ακρόπολης. Κάποια ισχυρή
φυσική καταστροφή κατά την πρώιμη εποχή του
Χαλκού οδήγησε στην εγκατάλειψη της σεισμογενούς
αυτής περιοχής, από όπου οι έντρομοι κάτοικοι
απομακρύνθηκαν για περίπου 2000 χρόνια.
Οι Δωριείς της Σπάρτης φαίνεται να
ξανακατοίκησαν την θέση στην Φαλάσαρνα κάπου
στον 8ο - 7ο π.Χ. αι. χτίζοντας νέο οικισμό πάνω
στα ερείπια του προϊστορικού. Η νέα πόλη – κράτος
οργανώθηκε με κατάλληλο νομικό καθεστώς και
πολιτικό σύστημα, με αποτέλεσμα την ανάπτυξη μίας
προοδευτικής κοινωνίας με πολιτιστικές ανταλλαγές
και με τους λαούς της ανατολής. Κύρια πηγή της
οικονομίας της ήταν η σχέση της με τη θάλασσα
χάρη στην οποία δημιουργήθηκε μία υποδομή, που
αργότερα την ανέδειξε σε ισχυρή ναυτική δύναμη.
Επίσης, η σπουδή των Φαλασαρνίων στα στρατιωτικά
θέματα και η επιδεξιότητά τους στις πολεμικές τέχνες
τους έκανε περιζήτητους ως μισθοφόρους αλλά και
ως σύμβουλους σε ανώτατα στρατιωτικά κλιμάκια
Μακεδόνων και Περσών.
Η χρυσή ευκαιρία για την πόλη δόθηκε τον 4ο π.Χ.
αι., όταν Περσικά κεφάλαια άρχισαν να διεισδύουν
στον Ελληνικό κόσμο με στόχο την αναχαίτηση
της προέλασης του Μεγάλου Αλεξάνδρου εναντίον
του βασιλιά Δαρείου και της αυτοκρατορίας του.
Κατ’αυτόν τον τρόπο οι Φαλασάρνιοι με χρήματα των
Περσών και με προτροπή της Σπάρτης, άρχισαν να
ανυψώνουν στην πόλη τείχη, και άλλα οικοδομήματα
στρατιωτικής αρχιτεκτονικής.
Οι αρχαίοι γεωγράφοι τόνισαν το «κλειστό»
λιμάνι, που κατασκευάστηκε τεχνητά γύρω από μια
προϋπάρχουσα λιμνοθάλασσα, περιστοιχίζοντάς το
με τείχη, αμυντικούς πύργους και προκυμαίες. Οι
Φαλασάρνιοι ναυτικοί συναλλάσονταν εμπορικά με
τους λαούς της Μεσογείου και είχαν στενές σχέσεις
με τους Φοίνικες. Η πόλη-κράτος της Φαλάσαρνας
έκοψε αργυρά και χάλκινα νομίσματα, λάτρευε την
θεά Δίκτυννα σε δικό της ναό, πάνω στην ακρόπολη
και διέθετε εργαστήρια επεξεργασίας μετάλλων. Τα
εργαστήρια παραγωγής αγγείων και γλυπτών της
Φαλάσαρνας παρήγαγαν καλλιτεχνήματα μιμούμενα
τις Αθηναϊκές τεχνικές. Τέλος, η Φαλάσαρνα
αναγνωρίστηκε για την ναυτική υπεροχή και κυριαρχία
της στη θάλασσα, γεγονός που της έδωσε μια θέση
στην ιστορία του αρχαίου Ελληνικού πολιτισμού.
Εν τούτοις, οι συνεχείς ανταγωνισμοί και πόλεμοι με
άλλες ισχυρές γειτονικές πόλεις-κράτη καθώς και οι

Venetians who conquered Crete
in the 13th century could not even
find where Phalasarna had been
located. A British traveler of the
19th century, T. A. B. Spratt, found
the city and its harbor 200 meters
(656 feet) inland, but few believed
him.
The harbor of Phalasarna was
the reason for the city’s existence.
It was its source of wealth. It led
to its recognition in history. And
it was the source of its downfall
and destruction. The final irony is
that the cataclysmic earthquake
that moved the harbor 200 meters
inland ultimately preserved it. No
later society could bring ships to
the same spot, and unlike almost
every other harbor of the Classical
or Hellenistic period, Phalasarna
was never overbuilt. The excavations have only begun to uncover
this once glorious city, and no one
can guess how much remains to be
learned in the future. K
συχνοί σεισμοί και καταποντισμοί
με τις επακόλουθες εξασθένησαν
και στον 1ο π.Χ. αι. τα κτήρια
της δεν ήταν παρά μια σκιά των
προγενέστερων μνημείων. Οι
κάτοικοι κατέληξαν στην πειρατεία
και το οργανωμένο δουλεμπόριο,
προκαλώντας την οργή της Ρώμης.
H Φαλάσαρνα καταστράφηκε από
τους Ρωμαίους το 67 π.Χ., όπως
και η υπόλοιπη Κρήτη κατά την
διάρκεια της περίφημης εκστρατείας
του Μεγάλου Πομπήϊου κατά
των πειρατών της Κιλικίας καθώς
και κατά τις επιχειρήσεις του
Κουίντου Καικίλιου Μέτελλου
εναντίον των Κρητών, δράσεις
που κατέστησαν ελεύθερους τους
εμπορικούς θαλάσσιους δρόμους
της Μεσογείου. Τελικά, το 365
μ.Χ. ένας από τους ισχυρότερους
σεισμούς που καταγράφτηκαν
στην ιστορία της ανθρωπότητας,
ανέδυσε από τα βάθη της θάλασσας
ολόκληρη την παραλιακή ζώνη
του κάμπου της Φαλάσαρνας
σε μερικά μόνο δευτερόλεπτα
ανυψώνοντας την ακτή κατά
6.5 μ., ενώ το τσουνάμι που
ακολούθησε πλημμύρισε την πόλη
καταχώνοντας το λιμάνι της κάτω
από τόνους θαλασσίων αποθέσεων
και λάσπης για 1600 χρόνια.
Οι Βενετοί που κυριάρχησαν
στην Κρήτη από τον 13ο μέχρι
τον 17ο αιώνα δεν κατάφεραν να
εντοπίσουν την αρχαία πόλη. Τελικά,
τον 19ο αιώνα ο Άγγλος εξερευνητής
Τ.Α.Β. Σπράττ προσδιόρισε την
αρχαία λιμενολεκάνη κάπου 200 μ.
απόσταση από την ακτή, αλλά πολλοί
ερευνητές αμφισβητούσαν την
πραγματική ύπαρξη του λιμανιού.
Σωστικές ανασκαφές ξεκίνησαν
το 1966 στην περιοχή του
νεκροταφείου. Το 1986 ερευνητικές
ανασκαφές στο λιμάνι άρχισαν να
φέρνουν στο φώς την ιστορία της
κάποτε ένδοξης ναυτικής πόλης.
Κανείς δεν μπορεί να προβλέψει
τι κρύβεται ακόμα θαμμένο κάτω
από την γη της Φαλάσαρνας και
ποιά νέα στοιχεία θα προστεθούν
στο πεδίο της ανθρώπινης γνώσης
με την πρόοδο των ανασκαφικών
ερευνών. K
OLD FRIENDS
By Lucille Klenakis,
former president of the Cretan Ladies
Proodos Chapter of Springfield, Mass.
When you see an old friend
Passing you by
Stand out and greet him
With a cheery “Hi.”
If he stops and stares at you
And can’t remember when
Don’t let a bad memory
Cheat you of a friend.
Take his hand and shake it
Smile from ear to ear
Remind him of the happy times
Each of you endeared.
Tell him of the old times
Both of you had known
Remind him of the wild oats
Each of you had sown.
Soon you’ll both be happy
Your joy could make you cry
It’s really good to see old friends
Don’t let one pass you by.
Dear Members of the PAA,
To date, the Agape Fundraiser has collected more than $90,000 for four great and
deserving institutions in Crete, in addition to supporting Crete Relief efforts in sending
containers of pharmaceuticals. The institutions include:
•The Samaritan, a philanthropic organization located in Sitia, which was established in
1927 to support impoverished families and children in need of medical care.
•The Iliaktida, located in Iraklion, is known as the Sunray Facility for children diagnosed
with cancer.
•The Agape Center, located in Rethymno, cares for adults and children with special needs.
•The Agios Nektarios Orphanage, located in Chania, was established in 1960.
On behalf of the Agape Fundraiser Committee, I would like to thank a few contributors
who, without their support, the event would not have been such a success. Anna Giannoulias and Manolis Alpogianis contributed in many ways, including their generous donations—both monetary and unselfish time, in addition to underwriting all of the expenses
for the event. This allowed every dollar collected to go to the worthy causes.
The Vidalakis Family Foundation made a $10,000 contribution for the charities, earmarked for the four institutions. The Vidalakis family continues to be great supporters of
the PAA and its causes. Included in this issue we have provided a detailed list of all of our generous supporters
who donated resources and funds for this PAA philanthropic effort.
I want to thank everyone who contributed financially, with in kind donations and time.
I would also like to extend a very special thank you to my good non-Cretan friends, Anna
Davlantes and Jane Monzures, for their generosity and for helping emcee the event,
which included assisting in our successful live auction and helping make this a fun and
elegant event. And, thank you all for your time and assistance leading up to the event and
the day of the event.
In closing, I would like to thank everyone listed on the donors page in addition to the
amazing APAGE on the Terrace Fundraiser Committee. Each and every person helped
make this a very successful fundraiser.
Thank you,
Stacy Marakis

Τα $90,000 δολάρια που συγκεντρώθηκαν σε εκδήλωση «έρανο» της Φιλανθρωπικής Επιτροπής της ΠΕΑ πρόσφατα
γιά την οικονομική ενίσχυση φιλανθρωπικών ιδρυμάτων της Κρήτης. Συγκεκριμένα, το ποσό αυτό, από εισφορές που
θα συγκεντρωθούν από ομογενείς, διατέθικαν εξ ολοκλήρου για την φροντίδα της υγείας ορφανών και ηλικιωμένων
στον Φιλανθρωπικό Σύλλογο Σητείας, «Ο ΣΑΜΑΡΕΙΤΗΣ», (έτος ίδρυσης το 1926), στον μη κερδοσκοπικό Σύλλογο
«Ηλιαχτίδα», στο Ηράκλειο, που από το 1992 παρέχει υποστήριξη στα παιδιά με νεοπλασματικά νοσήματα και των
οικογενειών τους, στον Σύλλογο «Αγάπη», στο Ρέθυμνο, στο Ορφανοτροφείο του Αγίου Νεκταρίου, στα Χανιά και
στο Πρόγραμμα Περίθαλψης του Φιλανθρωπικού Ταμείου της ΠΕΑ, που έχει σκοπό την υποστήριξη οικογενειών
στην Κρήτη που έχουν ανάγκη.
«Η επιτυχία του εράνου ξεπέρασε τις προσδοκίες μας και μας ενεθάρρυνε να τον επαναλάβουμε!» επισήμανε από την
πλευρά της η Πρόεδρος της Φιλανθρωπικής Επιτροπής, Ευαγγελία Αλπογιάννη. Την εκδήλωση παρουσίασε η γνωστή
τηλεπαρουσιάστρια Jane Monzures, ενώ την παράσταση «έκλεψαν» οι χορευτικές παραστάσεις της Κρητικής Νεολαίας,
υπό τους παραδοσιακούς ήχους της λύρας και του λαούτου.Η Παγκρητική Ένωση Αμερικής (ΠΕΑ) για περισσότερα
από 80 χρόνια υπήρξε ακρογωνιαίος λίθος της ελληνοαμερικανικής κοινότητας, προωθώντας την φιλανθρωπία,
εκπαιδευτικά προγράμματα, υποτροφίες και ποικίλες πολιτιστικές εκδηλώσεις.

Nikos Kazantzakis Washington, D.C.
On May 11, 2012, Stephen Emmanuel Markas, a prominent member of the “Nikos Kazantzakis,”
Washington D.C. Chapter, passed away at St. Joseph's Hospital in Towson, Maryland.
Stephen Emmanuel was the beloved husband of Pauline (Lymberis) Markas for 47 years and the loving
father of Stephen Matthew Markas and Michael S. Markas, M.D. (Miranda).
He was the beloved "Papou" of Joselyn and Justin Markas of Ellicott City, Md.
Stephen was beloved son of the late Michael P. and Helen Markas; and brother of the late Marina Plakidas. He is also survived by numerous loving relatives in both the U.S. and in Crete, Greece.
Stephen received his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and was employed
by Chevron Corp. in San Francisco for 36 years.
He was an avid member of the Pancretan Association of America, a supporting member of the Washington, D.C. Chapter, a generous donor to the Hellenic Center of Washington D.C., and an enthusiastic
Nikos Kazantzakis
contributor to all philanthropic activities sponsored by the Nikos Kazantzakis Chapter.
The president, the board and members of the Cretan Association of Greater Washington, D.C. Chapter, extend their deepest
sympathies and love to Pauline Markas and the entire Markas family and friends.
May his memory be eternal!
