President's Message

Novembre, 2025
Brothers-
A huge thank you to everyone who worked at the Little Italy Festival and made it to the meeting the next night. The festival was a lot of work but a great time, and we SOLD OUT of sausage sandwiches!
It looks like our digital order form for SOS merchandise worked out. If you ordered anything, it will be available for pickup at the November meeting.
It’s that time of year again: 2026 dues notices have been mailed out. If you have a change of address, please contact T.J. Blau so he can update the member list. With dues notices going out, any new member applications will be processed in the new year.
November is our last regular business meeting of the year. I hope to see everyone there.
December 12th will be our Adult Christmas Party. We will be having a wonderful prime rib dinner. Members are free, and spouses are $40. Please contact Mike Maltese by November 27th if you plan to attend.
Our Kids’ Christmas Party will be on December 14th. Our visit from Santa is always a good time. Please see social events for additional info.
The board is finalizing our 2026 event calendar. It will be included in your December newsletter, so keep an eye out
Last but not least, it is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of Frank Taormina, a mainstay in the kitchen for many years and father to our Food Service Director, Mark Taormina. Please keep Mark and the Taormina family in your thoughts and prayers.
Frank Salciccia – President
Auito Foundation Update
I am very excited to update the club on the status of the Auto Foundation, which is the nonprofit charitable organization funded by the Sons of Sicily. We have a new sense of positivity and momentum after adding some quality members to the Board and eliminating some of the negative influences of our past.
This year we will have given away approximately $15,000 to deserving High school graduates going on to higher education. You should receive your Sons of Sicily dues letters in the mail very soon. Please take some time and consider donating to the Auito Foundation. This money will be used to fund our scholarships. Thank you for your time.
