Andrion Club Articles of Association – Article 10
Andros
“To be an Andriot means being powerful, vigorous, intense, robust, intelligent, a restless spirit. It means being courageous, energetic and active in every sphere of endeavour, always. The Andriots are the true heirs to our Greek shipping tradition… Ready to travel to the ends of the earth, the Andriot never forgets the island of his birth, however much wealth he accrues”.
Article entitled “The rich of Andros”,
by the Metropolitan of Syros, Tinos and Andros,
Athanasios Leventopoulos, 1929
Principles & Vision
The guiding principles of the Andrion Club are based of the philosophy and the ideas of Theofilos Kairis.
Our vision is the Andrion Club to become the house and the convergence point of the Andriots from all over the world in Andros, with emphasis in the development of social life, education, and teamwork.
The social life of andrion club
Club House
The assembly of people is the commencement of the creation of a society. Even in the age of technology, physical contact with other people is the beginning of cultivating a society and therefore a civil society with empathy, solidarity, a sense of belonging, teamwork, mutual support, networking and the cultivation of a common vision and values.
