Nina Barclay Honored for Community Service
In June, Nina Barclay was honored by the Norwich chapter of The American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association for community service. The plaque reads "In recognition and gratitude of your many years of extraordinary and selfless service and dedication to the ideals of AHEPA and your love of Hellenism. Thank you for teaching, inspiring and encouraging our youth through your volunteerism with the Hellenic History Tournament, your commitment to Paideia, teaching Greek Studies at Norwich Free Academy, and your thirst for knowledge in Greek Classics." Thanks, Nina, for your lifelong efforts to spread appreciation of Greek (and Roman!) culture!
