Marisa Di Pietro is back from a month long vacation to Italy. Who can afford to go to

Italy for a month you ask? Answer – someone who stays with their mother and doesn’t

have to pay for room & board! ☺

Hopefully we can NOW resume a fairly regular newsletter…

INSTALLATION: The official installation of new officers and board of directors for

administrative year 2011-2012 was held on Tuesday September 6th

. Ed Coletta thanks all

evening where we installed the new officers, swore-in three new members and honored

our old friend and long-time Kiwanis member Angelo Fiantaca. See photos below

Clark Moulaison thanked everyone for supporting the Main Street’s September 2011 “Countdown to
