WINTER WONDERLAND GREETS AGBU YOUNG PROFESSIONALS OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
Record Snow Makes for Great Skiing, Great Socializing

South Lake Tahoe, CA – The South Lake Tahoe region recorded one of
the snowiest winters in recent memory the weekend of March 18th,
2005; however, nearly two feet of snow didn’t stop ABGU Young
Professionals of Northern California (YPNC) from making the most of
its Tahoe Trip. This year was the 7th excursion Northern California
Young Professionals have made in what has become an annual tradition
of skiing, socializing, and serious fun.

More than 30 alpine enthusiasts made the 4-hour journey to South
Lake Tahoe where the freshly fallen powder made for ideal skiing and
boarding conditions at Sierra Ski Ranch. By all accounts, the 2005
Tahoe Weekend was an overwhelming success.

“Like YPNC’s Winter Gala, the Tahoe Weekend has become an annual
tradition for the Young Professionals of Northern California,” said
Ed Minasian, the new YPNC Chair. “For those that couldn’t make this
year’s trip, it’s not too soon to look forward to the 2006 excursion.”

AGBU YPNC preserves and promotes the Armenian identity and heritage
by adding dimensions to the lives of young professional Armenians
through educational, cultural, social, and humanitarian programs. To
