PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE:
As we near the end of summer,=
I
hope everyone has enjoyed the warm weather so far.
We had another wonderful picnic an=
d had
a nice turnout in spite of some conflicts and hot weather. Thank you especi=
ally
to Pete Albrigo for coordinating the event and Carole Marascalchi for doing=
a
really nice job with the children’s activities.
Our annual benefit golf tournament=
was
also very successful. In spite of a morning downpour, we were able to adjus=
t.
It turned out to be a blessing as over 80 golfers participated and we raised
$600 for Exceptional Family Resources.&nbs=
p;
Special thanks to John Cregg, Mike Addabbo and Fred Scaia for running
the tournament and to Chuck DaVia helping with donations.
Although we have taken a little br=
eak
from our normal activities, we are ready to resume in September when we beg=
in
our polenta dinners again. As a warm-up, we will again be making polenta
carbonera for the field days, so stop by and try some. There will be servin=
gs
all three nights of August 11, 12 and 13 at Pasta’s tent.
Speaking of polenta, I would=
like
to continue to recognize some of our members for their very appreciated
contributions to our club – the polenta makers. Reno Rudari has headed
the group for several years and has a great crew. You’ll recognize the
names: Giustino Capella, Rudy Capella, John L. Maestri, Chris Maestri, Ron
Maestri (decided he’d have more fun being married in Arizona), Joe
Chemotti, Frank Balduzzi, Ferm Castellini, Mark Zoanetti and Franco
Franceschetti. Some of these masters of the trisa are getting up in age and
will be phasing out over the next year. Please be sure to stop by and thank
them this year some time.
On that note, we will be having a =
very
full polenta dinner schedule this year – not only because we enjoy ha=
ving
the dinners, but because they are an essential source of revenue. Thank you to all those who attend =
and to
those who work to make them happen.
We are always looking for volunteers, so call the Club if you are
interested.
Finally, personally and on behalf =
of the
Board and all our members, I would like to acknowledge and thank our club
manager, Bill Phillips. He has been a very dedicated and valuable member of=
the
club and has volunteered his time well beyond the manager duties. As you may have heard, he is curre=
ntly
battling cancer and has stepped down as club manager for several related
reasons, however, he plans to remain active with us and we welcome his
continued involvement. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
