On July 23, 2014, the residents came out to Valley Plaza Park for a day of cultural dancing at the Vardavar Festival. For just five dollars, one could go into the area and sit in the shade while enjoying various groups dancing various styles from traditional Armenian to more contemporary forms.
There were also food trucks, jumpers for the children and of course the event ended with a water balloon fight meant to cleanse the soul.
All the proceedings collected went to the Armenian Genocide foundation.
