    The Climb of a Lifetime at 13! My Mount Ararat Experience

    A PowerPoint Presentation



    GLENDALE, CA Fourteen-year-old Sebouh Oshagan will describe his climb up
    Mount Ararat at age 13 with a PowerPoint presentation on Wednesday, November
    20, 2013, at 7 pm at the Glendale Central Library Auditorium, 222 East
    Harvard Street in Glendale. Admission is free; seating is limited. The
    presentation is in English. Library visitors receive 3 hours FREE parking
    across the street at The MarketPlace parking structure with validation at
    the Loan Desk. The program is organized by the Library, Arts & Culture
    Department.



    Sebouh Oshagan is a 14-year-old ninth grader at Crescenta Valley High
    School, where he plays junior varsity soccer for the CV Falcons. He
    graduated from the Chamlian Armenian school in 2013. Sebouh is an avid
    soccer player ; his other hobbies include writing, reading, playing guitar
    and trying new restaurants. In an interview Sebouh stated, "My experience
    was a mixture of many different emotions, very strange to say the least.
    Pre-climb was very exciting. I was very eager to climb the mountain, and to
    get back home to earn insta-bragging rights with my friends. However, during
    the climb, the only thought circulating through my head was, just keep
    going, just keep going."



    Mount Ararat is the tallest mountain in the Middle East. Located in
    historical Armenia in what is now Eastern Turkey, Ararat scrapes the skies
    at 5,165 meters tall (16,946 feet).
