For four years, we’ve built what we hope to become a longstanding organization in Utah. From karaoke in the valley to skiing and snowboarding in the mountains, OurSundays has created opportunities for new and existing residents of Utah. We build community. That’s our business.

Founded in December 2021, OurSundays is a social impact organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of individuals in Utah. We focus on fostering meaningful connections, providing enjoyable and unique experiences, and facilitating opportunities for personal growth and learning.

The Alf Engen Ski Museum and OurSundays Ski and Board Club are teaming up for a unique après ski experience, blending snow sports, art, and community. The club’s mission is to build community and foster a love for snow sports, and increase access for Black folks living in and visiting Utah.

“Beyond the White,” depicts the story of the origins in 2023 of the OurSundays Club, whose mission is “building community and a passion for snow sports among people of color living in and visiting Utah.” The exhibit has an accompanying Spotify playlist titled “Slope Side 2025.”

Giles and Duncan highlight how Our Sundays bridge social connections, showcase Utah’s natural beauty, and contribute to community retention efforts. They also reflect on Utah’s evolving demographics and the importance of inclusivity in adapting to these changes.

Learning to ski comes with many challenges, especially if your circle of family and friends did not grow up skiing. While not impossible, learning to ski as an adult can present additional hurdles. [Going being obstacles Alta and Ski Utah teamed up for a third season of the Discover Winter program.

A big part of the history of skiing is the fellowship of ski clubs. And before you write it off as a thing of the past, meet the OurSundays Ski & Board Club. This started out to be a podcast on diversity…but it quickly became a celebration of why we all love to ski and ride

Our Sundays originated back in 2021, bringing black communities the chance to engage and participate in fun experiences, that they may never have had the option of participating in before including karaoke, skiing and snowboarding, kickball, cookouts, bowling, camping trips and so much more.

Domeda Duncan and Mark Giles of OurSundays aim is to exist and connect through the true joy of the Black community in Utah whether long or short-term residency. And striving to increase the retention of black professionals in Utah."

It all started exactly two years ago – December 2021. Domeda Duncan and Mark Giles, transplants to Utah and Co-Founders of OurSundays, wanted to have a holiday gathering for their network of relocated Black people calling Utah home at the time…this catapulted into a series of many experiences.

Ski Utah’s Discover Winter program is partnering with groups like OurSundays to change that. Raelene Davis, Vice President of marketing and operations for Ski Utah, established Discover Winter in response to a growing movement to introduce BIPOC individuals to snow sports.

RadioACTive catches up with community builders with a few ideas about celebrating and bridge building. Featuring: Domeda Duncan and Mark Giles of OurSundays, which creates experiences for black people to fellowship in Utah.
