Today, we celebrate peace, unity, and cooperation among European countries. But this year, we have an extra reason to rejoice! It's the 20th anniversary of Slovenia joining the European Union! Twenty years ago, Slovenia became a proud member of this big family of European nations, contributing to the collective effort to create a brighter future for all of us. Let's mark this special day with joy and pride, reflecting on the importance of friendship, cooperation, and the significant role Slovenia plays within the European Union, alongside all other member states. Happy Europe Day, everyone! Let's celebrate together and continue to foster unity and understanding in our community and beyond. 🎉 #EuropeDay #Slovenia20 #UnityInDiversity 

The last weekend of April, the 3-day Optimist Criterium Regatta 2024 Koper Europa Cup-Guličev memorial was successfully completed in Koper Bay, organized by JK Jadro Koper. More than 100 younger sailors in the optimist class from seven countries—Italy, the Czech Republic, Austria, Estonia, Ukraine, Tajikistan, and Slovenia—competed in the regatta. This was the last criterium regatta of the season to decide which of the sailors would represent Slovenia at the European Championships in Italy and the World Championships in Argentina. They sailed seven races in three days. It was tense until the last race, with only a few tenths of a point separating the competitors. The judges also had a lot of work to do in deciding on the protests. However, in the evening, they announced the Slovenian team for the optimist class, and among them is Zoja Ribarić. All of us who know Zoja know that she won her place on the national team with hard work, determination, and a lot of sacrifice. But it all paid off because she achieved her dream and the goal she set for herself. "Zoja, we are proud of you! Follow your dreams!"
