Zambia Independence Celebration in Seattle
Posted: Oct 27th, 2009 at 8:56 pm by chilumba
This last weekend, it was Zambia’s 45th Indepence Anniversary. The Zambia Association of Zambians in Seattle WA (AZISWA) hosted a celebration event for Zambia’s new milestone.
New place/ New program / New members
The last couple of years, the Independence party had always taken place in Auburn; this time, the event took place on October 24 (the exact anniversary date) at the Renton Community Center
The event had a different program and agenda. I guess they are building-on from the previous years offerings. Nice work!
I got a chance to see a fashion show (traditional Zambian outfits) and got to eat some Zambian food. In a couple months though, I will be in Zambia, and so will get to sample different Zambian treats
