African American Association of Sun Lakes (A.A.A.S.L.) was founded Sept. 1, 2001, by a small group residing in Sun Lakes, Ariz., who wanted to connect, both culturally and socially, with others having like interests and backgrounds. As a group, one of their goals was to proudly showcase and share the African American culture with other Sun Lakes residents, thereby achieving cross-cultural enrichment.
A.A.A.S.L. is a non-profit organization with the objective of bringing together, in a spirit of fellowship, individuals residing in Sun Lakes and within a 100-mile radius of Sun Lakes, Ariz., seeking recreation and social interaction, and who will function within the guidelines of the Association.
