The Assyrian New Year’s Parade took place on Sunday, April
7, 2013 at 2 pm. ORT students and teachers along with the school van started
traveling the parade route on Western Avenue from Peterson Avenue north to
Pratt Boulevard. ORT students were
riding in the school van which was decorated with the school logo and colorful
balloons. Other participants from
ORT joined Dr. Roel Georgis's float and proudly displayed the
school banner with additional information about ORT. The people marching in the parade were
holding Assyrian and American flags and were accompanied by the sounds of
Assyrian national music. The parade finished at 5 pm and
then everyone gathered at the Assyrian Hall to continue the celebration
with Assyrian food and music.
