    On Friday, April 25, 2008, the Armenian National Committee of Albany
    (ANC of Albany), will host the 93rd annual commemoration of the
    Armenian Genocide at Troy City Hall at One Monument Square.

    "Every year, Armenian communities throughout the nation and the
    world join together in remembering those that perished during the
    genocide. Having lost a survivor, Enza Mategian who was just short
    of her 95th birthday in July 2007, the time for recognition is now,"
    commented Antranig Karaegozian, ANC of Albany Chairman.

    Cong. Michael McNulty (D-NY-21), Mayor Harry Tutunjian of Troy, and
    Mayor Michael Manning of Watervliet will be in attendance at the event,
    and will speak and reflect on the importance of genocide recognition
    and local activism. Also present will be Democratic candidate for New
    York's 21st congressional district, Darius Shahinfar, who is seeking
    to replace the retiring Cong. McNulty.

    Cong. Mike McNulty has served in the House of Representatives since
    first being elected in 1988. Throughout his twenty years of dedicated
    service to his constituents, he has been a staunch supporter of issues
    of concern to the Armenian American community in upstate New York. He
    has traveled to the Republic of Armenia, and has consistently received
    an A+ rating from the Armenian National Committee of America for his
    ardent support for genocide recognition and the self-determination
    of Nagorno Karabagh.

    Following the ceremony, a "Madagh" dinner sponsored by the Homenetmen
    of Albany and a lecture by David Kherdian, an Armenian American
    poet and novelist, will be held at the Armenian Community Center
    in Watervliet.
