Title: White Week
Post by: Maik on Saturday, 18 January, 2014 @ 01:50:48
Recently the Hellenic Federation of Hoteliers proposed to the government a new annual vacation period for Greek schools with the aim of boosting domestic tourism in the winter ski resorts, the name proposed being 'Ski Week' or 'White Week'. The government initially appeared receptive but seem to be (ahem) cooling off the idea. Don't know whether it's intentional but there's a pretty appropriate headline on the gtp.gr news page: Plan For New “Ski Week” Holiday For Greek Schools Put On Ice (http://news.gtp.gr/2014/01/17/plan-for-new-ski-week-holiday-for-greek-schools-put-on-ice/)
