Brothers-
Our June regular meeting went very well, highlighted by an excellent meal and the introduction of four new members. Welcome to the club, gentlemen.
We are heading into a busy summer. Our annual Golf Tournament was a great success. It was a beautiful-though warm-day and the company was even better. I want to extend my sincere thanks to the golf committee and all of the volunteers for your hard work in making this event successful once again.
Aiuto scholarships will be presented to the six recipients at our Family Night on July 6th. If you plan to attend, please reserve your spot with Mike by calling before June 30th. This is a wonderful opportunity to bring the family and celebrate the future. Please see Social Events for adult and children's guest pricing.
On July 25th and 26th, we will once again participate in the IAHF Italian Festival, hosting booths for sausage sandwiches and ravioli. Volunteers are needed, and your support is greatly appreciated. Rodney Turco Sr. and Jr. are chairing the event this year; please reach out to them with your availability.
Sunday, August 2nd, will be our annual Family Picnic. This event will take place in lieu of our Monday regular meeting, so members attend free of charge. There will be games for both kids and adults, and all are welcome—this is a family and friends' event. For this to be a success, we need close to 200 attendees. It is not too early to call Mike and reserve your tickets.
We have received some preliminary information regarding Italian Night at the SJ Giants. This event is hosted by the Giants, and no outside vendors are permitted. We are exploring the possibility of having an information table and are awaiting additional details. Please continue to check your email for updates.
I look forward to seeing you and your families in July.

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.
