On Sunday December 10th, 2023, we had our Christmas celebration at the Italian Athletic Club in Stockton. There were around 130 in attendance – a great turnout! As usual, polenta was the mainstay of the meal. It was prepared superbly by the staff of the Athletic Club as were all the accompaniments. Carlo Soliván of The Don Giovannis entertained us with his amazing voice. Master of Ceremonies Attilio Mussi made various announcements and acknowledged in particular those who have been with the club since the 1980s and 1990s.
Members contributed an abundant array of raffle prizes, such as gunny sacks of Costa family walnuts, preserves and jams by Prevedelli Farms, grappa, etc.
We’d like to extend a huge thank you to the Trentini of Stockton who worked tirelessly to make this such a wonderful celebration. We’ll avoid mentioning names out of fear of forgetting someone.
Grazie mille to all of you!
