This DVD SET is dedicated to everyone who contributed to making this dream a reality, from the first to the last moment. I is dedicated to the 202 countries, the 11,099 athletes, the 7,671 escorts, coaches and umpires-judges, to the civil authorities and the Organizing Committee as well as the volunteers, the visitors from the world over and the Greek people who responded to this great challenge. It is also dedicated to all those people who did not believe that a small country could meet the requirements of such as colossal event. It is dedicated to all those people who on the evening of 29th August were forced to say sorry, or rather “sygnomi” to the Greeks for the lack of faith they had demonstrated.

We thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for this dream, which became a reality. Thank you also for the memories and for this amazing fairytale that took place once upon a time in Greece…
