*NY Hyortiks Annual Super Bowl Party a ‘Giant’ Success*
NEW YORK–On February 3, the New York Hyortik Armenian Youth Federation
(AYF) chapter hosted its annual Super Bowl party, drawing in members, family
and friends from all parts of the community. The main hall of the Armenian
Center in Woodside, NY was packed with people gathered to watch the game
with family and friends. For their guests the Hyortiks provided the
traditional football food: pizza, buffalo wings and chips. But that is not
to say that families did not bring their own lavash, banir and leghmajune.
Attendees, including a solid group of Hyortik alumni as well as members of
the Armenian Network and Armenian Students Association, were also able to
partake in other side activities during the game such as ping pong, tavlou
and blot. With its diverse activities as well as lively spirit, the annual
super bowl party brought together various generations to spend time together
on a Sunday evening. "A ‘Giant’ victory both on and off the field. The
turnout for the event was one of the largest I’ve seen in years," said
Armenian Network member Krikor Nichanian. The alumni, once again, showed its
continual support of the NY AYF, with former members attending year after
year this year with their new and growing families.
