August born Ghanaians in Chicago and its environs came off with fanfare

of other celebrants were there to participate in the first group outdoor

birthday celebrations in Chicago.The president of the Ghana National Council,

Mr. John Henry Assabill and the Moderator, Dr. Mark Kutame were there to

lend their support to the celebrants.

Attendants had a lot to eat and drink. The atmosphere was kept vibrating

with selections of popular lyrics by Freedom Soundz.
