Annual Events

The Association of Hispanic Alumni holds several events each year, its main event being the Gator Guayabera Guateque, held each May. This years event will be held on May 10th, 2008 at the Doral Spa & Golf Resort in Doral, Florida and will be the cornerstone of AHA's Gator Weekend Extraordinaire.

Gator Guayabera Kick-Off

This kick off event is held 2-3 months before the Guateque weekend in order to get local alumni excited about the event. At this event UFAHA will unveil this year’s Gator Guayabera Guateque poster and will announce this year’s recipient of the Gran Caiman of the Year award. It will also unveil unique merchandise that will be available at the event in May. This year's event will be 29 February 2008 at the Arts and Mind Center in Coconut Grove, FL.

Gator Golf Gathering

The Gator Golf Gathering began in 2007 at the Doral Country Club and Spa's Golf Course. With over 150 players in attendance last year, 2008 looks to increase the numbers and raise funds. This year it will take place on 9 May 2008 at the Doral Country Club, as well.

Gator Guayabera Guateque

The Gator Guayabera Guateque is an annual celebration held in Coral Gables, Florida each year. Attendants enjoy music, dancing, dominoes, dinner, and guest speakers. It is an opportunity for present and future alumni to party together for a good cause. Proceeds from the event go towards the Institute of Hispanic-Latino Cultures and student scholarships at the University of Florida. This year's event will be 10 May 2008.

Gator Guayabera Guateque Encore

The Gator Guayabera Guateque Encore brings the Association of Hispanic Alumni to La Casita for UF's Homecoming Weekend. Music is played, breakfast is served, and old and new friends reunite to talk and have fun before the biggest Gator Football event of the year.

This is also where the AHA present La Casita with the earnings from the Guateque in May.
