President’s Message
Happy 4th of July. Congratulations on America’s 250th year of it’s founding. It is a
momentous occasion that we all should be proud of. This country was built by our
forefathers that came from countries all around the world who worked together
and fought together to make this country what it is today. Do not let their sacrifices
go in vain. Pray that we can keep their hopes and dreams alive for many more
years to come and keep the American dream alive.
This is also a big month for the Le Radici Italian Club. Our participation in the
Festa Italiana in down-town Cuyahoga Falls will occur on July 17-19. Volunteers
are still needed starting on July 16 to cut onions and peppers and for the
weekend. Also later that day around 5 pm a crew will meet and load up supplies
to bring to the Festa Italiana site and set-up our tent and equipment.
Sign-up sheets will be available at our meeting on July 14.
The club will also have a lasagna workshop and dinner on July 9 and 10. On July
31 there will be a burger night. See the posted flyers for info.
