Frank Fierman AZA has existed, in its current state, since 1980. Before that year, chapters in [[Atlanta Council]] were organized by grade, lasting only four year periods. Thus, in 1980, Fierman was rechartered. The date it was originally founded, however, is unknown.

*'''Hoo-Hah'''- A longstanding tradition of Frank Fierman, Hoo-Hah is performed at every council/regional meeting. The chapter godol counts to three and each fiermanite shouts "hoo-hah" as they cross their legs. As the chapter shouts "hoo," the members stomp their right foot on the ground and begin to lift it up. On "hah," the right leg is lifted, turned, and placed on the left knee. At [[International Convention]], the Atlanta Council delegation introduced Hoo-Hah to the international order, but it endures in Atlanta as Fierman tradition.
