This is the 9th time we shall be gathering as a Ugandan Community and friends living in the State of Colorado at the Cherry Creek State Park.  Our main objective is to meet and know each other better;  promote and preserve our Ugandan cultures and traditions as Ugandans and friends of Uganda living in the State of Colorado and or the Rocky Mountain Region. . This is in line with the objectives of the United Ugandans Association of Colorado below:

• To bring together Ugandans and Friends of Uganda living in the State of Colorado
• To preserve and promote the Ugandan culture and Traditions
• To encourage Colorado Ugandans, particularly the youths arriving from Uganda to pursue Education on arrival and also embark on a career that will meet the demands of the 21st century
• To  encourage Colorado Ugandans and Friends to participate in the American process through; voting, education, wealth building, military service, etc
•  To celebrate success stories in the Colorado Ugandan Community; Marriages, Graduations, New borns, Business startups, etc
