28 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | MAY 2025 | Approved as a club a year ago this month, the mission and vision of AHCC is to celebrate, appreciate, and share the joys of our African heritage and common identity at Sun Lakes Country Club. These ongoing informational, inspirational, and social events keep us connected to each other and our shared history. New possibilities. New connections. As a new club, AHCC has been listening to the diverse interests of our members and those who are considering membership. This year the African Heritage Connection Club held well-received meetings and events. For the next half of this year, we are preparing to embark on a series of wonderful events and activities. We're on a roll! Our monthly meetings and extraordinary events have something for everybody. Our April meeting included a discussion panel entitled 'Her Story' with Virginia Green, Linda Cole, and Cynthia White-Piper. Everyone has lived through their personal experience in America. Some experiences are a little different than many might be familiar with. Members and guests learned through the panel sharing their lived African heritage experiences. Dinner will be available at every monthly member meeting, for $15. Along with Black history shorts, music, and dancing. This month, members can look forward to a Red Tails (Tuskegee Airmen) movie with dinner. Also on the schedule is a fun interactive and creative Paint and Sip evening, with many more fun and engaging meetings. Excursions are also on the agenda. A day trip to the African American Beginnings Museum and a visit to the African American Museum in Washington D.C. Special events to include the public; an evening of Jazz in June celebrating Juneteenth. A Gospel Music Brunch in September. Also, a Black author reading and Black artist show in the fall. We also seek to continue our engagement with everyone to identify your specific interests for participation as we enhance our 2025 calendar. With AHCC Sun Lakers can always expect engagement, a little fun, lots of camaraderie, valuable information, and a down-home meal, at our monthly members meetings and events. Everyone is welcome. Come explore the many African heritage connections that are amongst us here at Sun Lakes.
