GOYA News
We look forward to another fabulous year in GOYA! September begins with Welcome Back Sunday, our Ice Cream Social, and our first meeting (click here for the GOYA Calendar). We have many great events planned including service and outreach activities, continuing our Thanksgiving Baskets to families in need to our Midnight Run for the homeless. We will also have a lot of fun at our Inter-GOYA dances, trips, and retreats!
We welcome all new and returning GOYAns to attend these events and learn about the activities and events ahead.
GOYA also offers participation in organized basketball and soccer leagues through the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. Click here for more information.
