SUN LAKES ITALIAN AMERICAN CLUB (SLIAC)
If you love good food, laughter, and a touch of Italian flair, this is the club for you. The Sun Lakes Italian American Club (SLIAC) was founded in 1979 and meets monthly from October to May. We gather once a month at the Oakwood Ballroom in Sun Lakes for a hearty Italian dinner and a program that’s never the same twice. One month the program will be” Italian Jeopardy” or “A Night of Italian Comedians”, another it’s “Mobsters & Goomatas” dress up and dance. To bring the Roman Colosseum to life, we will be having “Colosseum History & Toga and Gladiator dress up night” Wow!
We will celebrate the holidays in style with our annual Christmas Party featuring barbershop singers and a super raffle, and we will keep things sweet with “The Great Italian Bake-Off” showcasing homemade Italian desserts made by some of our members. Add in the March Potluck at Sisk Park where members get to bring their own Italian recipes for all members to try, along with a Bocceball Tournament for the ages. With a new topic called ‘A Night of Italian Circus History”, you’ve got a club where every meeting feels like a festa. Come hungry, and come ready to laugh, and come celebrate your Italian spirit the Sun Lakes way!
Our motto is CELEBRATING LA DOLCE VITA—SUN LAKES STYLE!
