Mr. Michael Ciamarra, Mrs. Melody Ciamarra, Mrs. Iris Gross and Mr. Bill Gross at 29th October , 88th year of Turkish Republic Day celebration at Birmingham International Center.

 

We celebrate like another birthday of the Turkish Republic each year with 10th year anthem. It was the Republic Day celebration while the Father of Turks was a life.

We ask our future generation to put off the candles on the cake.

 

With volunteers, we prepared examples from Turkish Cuisine to enjoy all together.

Great Team.

In an endeavor to raise money for the organization, the TAAA put together a game night for its members and friends on March 13, 2011. The event consisted of a backgammon tournament, Marbling art, fortune telling and much more. The TAAA also sold t-shirts, specially designed by Hulya Aybek. Ferhat Zengul showed the TAAA and friends the fascinating art of Marbling art “Ebru”; all proceeds from his masterpieces went to the TAAA. A big thanks goes to all those who helped prepare a delicious feast for our members and guests for Game Night!

Congratulations to Patricia Yayman for winning the backgammon tournament!
