I have the sad obligation to inform you that our beloved friend George Sparis, President of the Hellenic Philatelic Society and President of NOTOS 2015 passed away few hours ago.
It is a great loss not only for the Society but for the Hellenic Philately in general.
I would respectfully suggest at these moments to do not contact the family in their grief.
Any messages or condolences may be addressed to me and I shall communicate them accordingly.
Let God rest him in peace.

The FEPA Board unanimously agreed in granting the FEPA Recognition to the 11th School of Young Philatelists /National Youth Philatelic Exhibition with international participation “TRAKOSCAN 2016”.
The Club of Young Philatelists “Trakoscan”, Muncipality of Bednja and Castle Trakoscan are going to organize the 11th School of Young Philatelists “TRAKOSCAN 2016” with international participation, which will be held in Trakoscan on October, 8th 2016.
The School is designed as a philatelic event at the national level with international participation. It is expected presence of about 150 participants. The concept is based on educational program with the aim that children meet national, historical, cultural and natural heritage through postage stamps. Children i.e. participants (6-18 years of age) in this way learn about their country, but also about countries of Europe and world in general, they get connected with other children, change their cultural habits, worldviews and sytstem of true values.
Integral part of the School is National Philatelic Exhibition of Young Philatelists “TRAKOSCAN 2016” with international participation, which will be held from October, 8th until October, 16th 2016 at the premieses of the Gallery of Castle Trakoscan.
Previous experiences in the work of the School through which passed cca. 2.500 young people have shown that this approach of learning gives very good results and statistics shows that those children will be successful in secondary and college education. That is why we expect the School will contribute to changing the behaviour of young people, their efficient work in future jobs and further more.
