AYF Junior Athletic Games Travel to New Jersey
WATERTOWN, Mass. - The Central Junior Council (CJC) of the AYF-YOARF
Eastern Region recently announced plans for the annual AYF-YOARF
Junior Athletic Games (JAG) to be held September 29- to October 1.
Similar to the annual Senior Olympic Games, JAG brings together
juniors from the Mid-Atlantic and New England chapters for friendly
competition, fraternalism and enjoying the AYF spirit. Traditionally
held at Camp Haiastan, this year's event, now in its 6th year, will
be held in New Jersey and hosted by the New Jersey Arsen chapter.
Emulating the feel that that Mid-West games have, the CJC and Central
Executive hope to draw in larger crowds of parents and supporters
and create a strong family atmosphere.
The official headquarters will be the Marriot in Saddle Brook, N.J.,
with games taking place in Bergen County. The weekend's activities will
include a Friday evening welcoming social, followed by the swimming and
track and field games on Saturday. The New Jersey Arsen Seniors will be
sponsoring the Fall Ball featuring the Aravod Ensemble on September 30.
AYF juniors, family members, and supporters are strongly encouraged
to attend this event as it promises to add new feel and dimension to
the event. "The AYF is about the families, the people, the generations
of Armenians that have lived and are living in the Diaspora and how
we can continue to grow and remain united. With this event, we hope
not only for the juniors to have fun, but for the families to also
share in these memorable moments," said CJC chairperson Angela Deese.
The Saddle Brook Marriott is located at 138 Pehle Ave, Saddle Brook,
N.J. 07663. Reservations should be made by attendees by directly
calling Marriott reservations at (800) 832-6254 or (201) 843-9500.

Federation. The room rate for the group is $109 per night and rooms
