Congratulations to our St. Mary ACYO chapter on their dedication and support for one another during the annual Sports Weekend 2026! Our ACYO members and parents traveled to Fresno for the weekend to represent our chapter. Our members participated in a variety of sports, including volleyball, basketball, soccer, the 3-point shootout, and Nardi.

This year, our Junior girls’ volleyball team placed 3rd, and our Senior girls’ volleyball team placed 2nd! 👏🎊 We are so proud of our youth members for their efforts and spirits ❤️👏👏

Over the weekend, our members attended the Friday night social at Dave & Buster’s. On Saturday, our youth spent time with other chapters at St. Paul Fresno, socializing, laughing, and dancing traditional Armenian dances. On Sunday, all chapters participated in Badarak celebrated by Hayr Eremia at St. Paul Fresno. After the badark and the final games, the weekend concluded with an awards ceremony and a fun party with a DJ.

We hope our youth can experience Sports Weekend again next year. Arachad Adzvadz❤️

On May 16th Saturday, at church Our ACYO attended a talk, led by Armen Grigorian, Founder & Managing Partner of Redmount Capital Partners with 30+ years of experience in finance and private capital.
Our youth learned about personal finance, entrepreneurial thinking, saving habits, investing, compound growth, and how psychology can influence money decisions through behavioral finance.

It was such an educational and inspiring experience for everyone, and hopefully we will continue to host monthly life and financial education talks for our youth in the future!
