Brothers-
We had a great Christmas Party this year. Great food thanks to Mark and his crew, and great company thanks to all the great brothers and their significant others. Thanks to all who were able to attend, and I hope everyone had a great time. We had our Kids Christmas Party on the 14th, and all the kids had a great time and got some great gifts. Many thanks to J.C. Zambataro for putting this together, and Rosario at Giovanni’s Pizza for donating his restaurant and amazing pizza for everyone to enjoy. The kids had a blast.
2026 dues notices have been mailed out. If you have a change to your information, please contact T.J. Blau so he can update the member list. With dues notices already distributed, any new member applications will be processed in January 2026.
As we start the new year, our January 5, 2026 meeting will be a Male Guest Night. Please call Mike if you are bringing a guest or future member to dinner. In 2026, we will be doing a member spotlight for the newsletter. We will be focusing on a new member every month. I was asked to kick it off, so enjoy.
To get you ahead of the game, 2026 Crab Feed tickets will be available starting 1/2/2026. Our Crab Feeds are always the best in the Bay, and our tickets sell out fast. See social events for more info. The 2026 event calendar is attached, so start saving the dates. This year, we will be trying to add some events throughout the year, so keep checking your email for updates.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a great New Year, and that you were able to spend some great time with your families over this holiday season. 2025 has been a wonderful year filled with great events, and I hope that next year is even better. Everyone stay healthy and see you in 2026! Hope to see everyone in the New Year.

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.
