Our Picnics
AAN has regular picnics most months, alternating between parks in Dulwich Hill and Merrylands. The aim of the picnics is for mixed Australian African families and couples to meet each other and hang out together. AAN Committee members will attend so it’s also a chance for you to talk to us about what you think AAN should be doing. If it rains, we meet at a cafe instead.
The next picnic is on August 8 at Merrylands Central Gardens
Other events
We have a dinner party about every three months, usually at an African Restaurant.
Our next dinner will be on Saturday 5 September in Surry Hills – restaurant to be advised. After dinner a group of us are going dancing at an African dance club near Central Station.
We also usually have an end of year party – keep an eye out for the dates.

2008
In 2007 AAN had a number of family picnics both at Merryands and at Dulwich Hill. We also had an end of year dance party and family BBQ in Lakemba, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Canterbury Council.
2007
In 2007 AAN had a number of family picnics both at Merryands Central park and at Johnson Park. We also had a private end of year party for members and guests.
2006
Australian Network had three events in 2006. We kicked off with a seminar in March, then finished the year with a picnic at Bicenntenial Park in November, and a party in December. We also ran a playgroup in Westmead for six months.
The seminar was attended by about 30 people, and featured speakers from African Community organisations as well as AAN. Speakers spoke both from personal and broader community perspectives. Watch this space for downloads.

Hi Floyd, I think http://www.africanoz.com.au advertise african dating sites, so they’re your best bet. Good luck!
