The tradition of heritage and fellowship is celebrated throughout
the year by Federation members at the many events sponsored
by Affiliated Clubs and members in their respective cities and
states. The entire Federation Family gathers twice annually,
sharing traditional foods, dances, and fellowship at Summer
Conventions and Mid-Winter Conferences. The Summer Convention
(usually held on the 4th of July weekend) includes the following
highlights:
- Cultural Events
- Grand Banquet
- Haflis (parties with live Arabic entertainment)
- Scholarship Awards Luncheon
- Debutante Presentation
- Young Adult Club and Activities
- Host City Tours and Special Events
- Organized Sporting Events (when possible)
- Hospitality Room
- Child Care
- Activities For All Age Groups
The Federation Conventions and Conferences offer fun for all
ages -- young adult activities, pool side parties, sports, traditional
and popular dances, ethnic foods, cultural and educational seminars,
debutante presentations, child care and children's activities
-- festivities for all family members. These events and activities
create many opportunities to meet people from all over the United
States and to make new friends for a lifetime.
