    ANCA-Burbank Celebrates Christmas at the new Burbank Youth Center
    Burbank, CA -- The Armenian National Committee of America, Burbank
    (ANCA-B) hosted its annual Armenian Christmas reception on January 7,
    2013. In attendance were members of the City Council, several City
    officials, candidates for Burbank elections and representatives of
    several state and federal government offices, as well as members of
    the organizations that call new Burbank Youth Center home.

    The festive evening began with remarks by Zareh Khachatourian, who
    welcomed the guests and described the exciting opportunities available
    at the Burbank Youth Center. Mayor of Burbank, Dave Golonski,
    congratulated ANCA-B and the entire Armenian community for the efforts
    that culminated in the new Youth Center, and expressed his best wishes
    for the future of the community. Guests were then invited to enjoy the
    food and explore the Youth Center, which provides a basketball court,
    offices, and meeting spaces.

    Overall, the evening was celebratory, yet productive. `I would like to
    thank our city officials for attending our annual event and showing
    support to our Center and its activities, setting an example for our
    youth to become exemplary citizens of their community,' stated Ara
    Boyadjian, chairman of the Christmas reception organizing
    committee. `Events such as this provide an opportunity to interact and
    discuss important issues with our elected official in a fun, casual
    atmosphere. It is through the support of our local, state, and
    federal officials that the ANCA-B is able to continue to serve the
    community, and provide resources for our youth. We are pleased to
    always receive such a great turnout,' added Boyadjian.

    The Armenian National Committee of America, Burbank advances the
    social, economic, cultural, and political rights of the area's
    Armenian American community and promotes increased Armenian American
    civic participation at the grassroots and public policy levels.
