I have gone, and would and will go either this Saturday or Sunday to tadron Sarmen. I thought a curriculum was set, and that the elders had decided to make that an event, but I have not seen one update on that or an email as a reminder by the elders. So I believe if it all continues this way, the mentees will ,and already have, begun to lose hope in this program soon.
Lets decide if we are going with the group, or just us mentors, or neither. :)
-Sorry I missed the meeting, and thank you for the updates.

Yeah, of course. It says you must have a permit before organizing picnics, etc. This will insure that we have the bbq area as well as benches/tables.

Info re Hamilton Park:
http://ci.pasadena.ca.us/humanservices/images/PDF%20Files/parkmaps/Hamilton%20Park.pdf <http://ci.pasadena.ca.us/humanservices/images/PDF%20Files/parkmaps/Hamilton%20Park.pdf>
Hamilton Park is located at 3680 Cartwright Street. Hours of operation are from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. The size of the park is 6.4 acres. Large community park with the following amenities: three softball diamonds (two with seating capacity for 400); two lighted tennis courts; basketball court; paved volleyball court; large multi-purpose field for flag football/soccer; large parking area; 2 picnic areas; children's play area with equipment; restrooms; and drinking fountains.
Looks like, in order to "reserve" it, we need to put down a deposit and we need to do it 30 days in advance!! Arrgh. Is this bad news for us? Someone please chime in and advise.

April 4...I've written "Azkanviroum--10-4"...on my calendar. What was this about??? Anyone remember? Maybe the elders can remind us ;-)
As for Hamilton Park...I'll go by on Saturday to make sure they still have BBQ's. Do we need to get a permit from the City? I'll find out. If the cooking thing becomes too much of a hassle, we can always get subway or order pizza's or get Zankou to sponsor. I'm not kidding about that last one.
As for the Ardzavazt Play (that Sarmen is in)...the AGBU Pasadena High School and Scouts are attending this Saturday evening. I believe Sunday night is a group that Razmig (or your dad?) is involved in. I've already been twice but I'm sure I'll be there at some point this weekend again!

Hey Guys..ok so as far as the updates go..Razmig, did u send anything to the elders? I also agree that the points need to be a little sugar coated before being presented. Now, as far as the 21st is concerned, I think burgers would be the best, if we want to do something social with them, but the priority is finding out if they can make it. So if everyone can pls. check with their mentees if they are available on the 21st so we can go from there. Cuz if alot of them can't make it, then we can do a one- on-one thing. So lets have a deadline by this friday to see if our mentees can make it on the 21st, after that we can decide, who is buying what and what we are planning to do. Does that sound ok with everyone?
p.s. hope everyone is having a great week:)

agreed.
Also, lets start talking about ideas for the march 21 event. its not so far away.
- bbq (burgers? kebab?) plates, cups, drinks, music...
- games: sports (basketball, soccer, football, frisbee)....twister?
- prep material to talk to our mentees (vartan mamigonian, movses khorenatsi)
Also, whats going on for this Saturday. Is anyone coming to the tadron? Were we supposed to tell the mentees?

That does sum everything up, but the event on March will be social
event but I thought we were also going to talk about Vartan and
stuff...therefore not completely a social event.
