Dear AIC Members, Friends, Guests and Fellow Americans,

 In this time of coronavirus uncertainty, the AIC made the difficult decision to cancel our traditional 4^th of July Celebration event.  However, it has not dampened the spirit of the 4^th of July, nor the AIC’s commitment to celebrate this important American holiday. We remain committed to our community and will not let this historic moment go unnoticed.

When the decision was made to cancel this year’s event, ideas started to flow as to what we can do online.  We reached out to our members and the US Ambassador, Mr. Ed McMullen.  All were enthusiastic about the concept and willing to help to make something happen.

As a result, the AIC will be publishing this special 4th of July Newsletter weekly up until the 4th and offering some all-American recipes, a fun-but-challenging US history quiz, an essay contest on “What Freedom Means to Me”, a chance to get creative with a parade contest, and much more fun for kids and grown-ups alike.

On the 4^th of July via YouTube, LinkedIn and Facebook we will broadcast a special message from Ambassador McMullen and our president Ed Schneider as well as a performance of the national anthem from Mrs. Patricia Ryan, as tradition would have it.
