ARTASHAT, JULY 4, NOYAN TAPAN. It is already several years
that the U.S.-based Armenian Community Development Foundation
non-governmental organization organizes a ten-day summer camp in the
Verin Dvin community of the Ararat marz for the children of ethnic
minoroties. Assyrians who live in the village have a possibility to
learn in their native language. The children are not only fluent in
Assyrian, Armenian and Russian, but also know English and German.

The inhabitants of the Verin Dvin had an interesting rest from June 27
to July 7 due to the Armenian Community Development Foundation. During
ten days, the 1-6 form pupils were in the camp from 10 am, amd the 6-9
form pupils attended the second shift. Nearly 150 children participated
in studies and games of different groups in the camp. Specialists
sent by the non-governmental organization conducted the studies.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
