Hermes AHEPA Chapter 186 Celebrates Christmas

ASTORIA – AHEPA Hermes Chapter 186 held its first Christmas/New Year’s Networking Event on December 30. The party was at Selo Restaurant, 33-05 Broadway in Astoria. The members and guests enjoyed a mix of traditional Croatian, Serbian, and Balkan cuisine with a modern twist.

The chapter thanked the proprietor, Elvis Tominovic, also a chapter member, for the wonderful evening. They made some new friends from the Babylon chapter who joined the event and all got to spend some quality time with their families.
