Representatives of 4 clubs of the Macedonian Patriotic Organization (MPO) in North America met at the Church of the Holy Spirit in Youngstown. The host was the local society "Todor Alexandrov" from Ohio, which is now almost 90 years old. The president of the organization, Janice Jarvis, received several gifts for their branch, from the visiting clubs "Damian Gruev" in Indianapolis, MPO "Pirin" from Chicago and MPO "Bistritsa" from Cincinnati. 

The guests presented the hosts with a portrait of Todor Alexandrov from 1912 with his autograph and a dedication to the poet Peyo Yavorov and several publications on the subject of Macedonia, including classic books such as "Confessions of a Macedonian Bandit: A Californian in the Balkan Wars" by Albert Sonnichsen, published in 1909 and the 1909 study of diplomat Henry Brailsford on Macedonia (Henry N. Brailsford, Macedonia: Its Races and Their Future, Premier Press, New York, 1909).
