We invite you to save the dates — <strong>September 17–19, 2027</strong> — for a three-day celebration of everything this community has built.</p> <p style="font-size:17px; line-height:28px; margin:0 0 18px 0;">For a decade, UGAANA has turned the bond among Legon alumni in North America into something tangible: full scholarships for brilliant students who could not otherwise afford to study, strategic support for our alma mater, and outreach that has reached communities on both sides of the Atlantic.</p> <p style="font-size:17px; line-height:28px; margin:0 0 28px 0;">The 2027 celebration honors that legacy and looks ahead to the next decade — a moment to thank the alumni, donors, and partners who built the first ten years, and to invite them into the next. As proud alumni of the University of Ghana, we carry Legon's spirit of scholarship and service into everything we do.</p><!-- Highlights --> <h3 style="font-size:13px; letter-spacing:2px; text-transform:uppercase; color:#0B5D3B; margin:0 0 16px 0; padding-top:8px; border-top:2px solid #E2DCCE;">Highlights of the Weekend</h3> <table role="presentation" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="margin:0 0 28px 0;"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="padding:6px 0; font-size:17px; line-height:26px; border-bottom:1px solid #EDE7DA;"><strong style="color:#08492E;">Akwaaba Night</strong> &nbsp;—&nbsp; a warm Ghanaian welcome to open the celebration</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:6px 0; font-size:17px; line-height:26px; border-bottom:1px solid #EDE7DA;"><strong style="color:#08492E;">Congress</strong> &nbsp;—&nbsp; the business and vision of UGAANA's next decade</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:6px 0; font-size:17px; line-height:26px; border-bottom:1px solid #EDE7DA;"><strong style="color:#08492E;">Dinner Dance</strong> &nbsp;—&nbsp; the anniversary gala and fundraising centerpiece</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:6px 0; font-size:17px; line-height:26px; border-bottom:1px solid #EDE7DA;"><strong style="color:#08492E;">Picnic</strong> &nbsp;—&nbsp; food, family, and fellowship in a relaxed setting</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:6px 0; font-size:17px; line-height:26px;"><strong style="color:#08492E;">Tour</strong> &nbsp;—&nbsp; an excursion for members and guests</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p style="font-size:17px; line-height:28px; margin:0 0 6px 0;"><strong>Venue</strong></p> <p style="font-size:17px; line-height:28px; margin:0 0 18px 0;">Hilton Washington DC / Rockville Hotel &amp; Executive Meeting Center, 1750 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD 20852.</p> <p style="font-size:17px; line-height:28px; margin:0 0 6px 0;"><strong>What's next</strong></p> <p style="font-size:17px; line-height:28px; margin:0 0 18px 0;">Registration, hotel booking, and sponsorship opportunities will be announced by the committee in the coming weeks.</p> <p style="font-size:17px; line-height:28px; margin:0 0 24px 0;">For now, save the dates.
