The Democrats Abroad Greece (DAGR) on Wednesday announced the founding of a new chapter for northern Greece, with US Democratic Party supporters to assemble at noon on Sunday in Thessaloniki for the purpose.
Former US presidential candidate and Massachusetts governor Michael Dukakis and his wife Kitty, who are visiting Greece, will speak at the event on the issue of the upcoming the 2010 US congressional elections.
The event will be hosted at the American College of Thessaloniki (Anatolia College), in the Pylaia district of Thessaloniki.
Gov. Dukakis and Mrs. Dukakis will visit Thessaloniki to attend a series of commemorative ceremonies for Anatolia College/ACT, and its education mission in northern Greece.
DAGR chairwoman Yvette Jarvis will conduct the Thessaloniki meeting, while vice-chair Alec Mally (a former US consul general in Thessaloniki) will explain the new Chapter. Additionally, Counsel Nicholas Pisaris will supervise the election of interim Chapter officers.
According to a press release by the group, membership in Democrats Abroad is free and open to all U.S. citizens who share the party’s ideals.
