Fundraiser celebrates the season
An event called `Winter Wonderland’ descended Saturday on central
Glendale, bringing with it games, rides and even some trucked-in snow
for local families.
The Armenian Relief Society of Western USA organized the fun-filled
weekend at St. Mary’s Armenian Apostolic Church in effort to raise
funds for its social service, disaster relief, youth and after-school
programs, which are offered to local residents and international
groups.
Children at the event got to take dives onto two large snow slides and
ride a Ferris wheel amid live music and international dance
performances.
The festivities were scheduled to continue today from 10 a.m. to 10
p.m. at the church, 500 S. Central Ave. Amusement rides were to start
at 1 p.m., with admission at $3.
