NEW ARRIVAL AGBU YP DETROIT BECOMING A MOTOWN FAVORITE
Joining the growing network of AGBU Young Professionals (YP) Groups
around the world, a new YP Group was introduced to the greater
Detroit, Michigan community the evening of May 18, 2006. With more
than 40 Armenian professionals present, YP Detroit's kick-off social
at the trendy Ferndale restaurant, Via Nove, attracted many new faces
and generated fresh enthusiasm for its future work.
While guests mixed and mingled during the buffet, YP Detroit
Chairwoman Merrily Borman and Committee Member Chris Korkoian
explained the group's mission to provide a welcoming environment for
all local Armenian young professionals to engage in educational,
cultural, humanitarian and social activities.
Mr. Korkoian then recognized special guest Kim Yacoubian, YP Liaison
from AGBU Central Office in New York. Ms. Yacoubian spoke briefly
about AGBU, the Young Professionals movement, as well as upcoming AGBU
events for Armenian youth including the World Games & YP Conference
(www.agbu.org/worldgames) in Beirut, Lebanon this July and the General
Assembly Centennial Celebration (www.ugab.info/100/eng) in Paris,
France this December.
Throughout the evening, attendees made new contacts, shared thoughts
and ideas about their professional experiences and discussed future
plans for YP Detroit. As the evening came to a close, surveys were
collected and door prizes were awarded to thank those that
attended. Setting a solid foundation for the organization, YP Detroit
looks forward to establishing a strong presence within its local
Armenian community, as well as AGBU's global network.
AGBU YP Detroit is committed to preserving and promoting the Armenian
identity and heritage through educational, cultural and humanitarian
programs. To volunteer for YP Detroit or join their mailing list,
