Saluti a tutti,
What a year this has been!!! We have done our very best to keep our mission alive while keeping everyone safe. Now that we are seeing some return to “normal”, we have reinstituted our monthly membership meetings. In May and June, we will continue to socially distance at our monthly meetings with limited capacity. Things do continue to improve, and we hope all members will come back soon!!!
Spring is here and there’s much to do before this fiscal year of Nutley UNICO comes to a close (2020-2021). Just this past month, your scholarship committee voted to awarded 24 scholarships to deserving Nutley high school seniors. We are very proud to have been able to continue this tradition in spite of the pandemic.
Community Service Day is upon us and we will be thinking about where we can safely gather to do something that will enhance and benefit our community. Please watch our emails for this upcoming community service project.
Last July, due to COVID-19, UNICO National canceled the Florida convention. This year, they have scheduled the July convention for Parsippany, New Jersey! Please read your ComUNICO magazine for more information on how you might attend. It’s a wonderful event and very close to home!
On the District level, UNICO District VII will welcome our own, Marie Solimo, as its incoming District Governor. She will be installed on July 13th, 2021 and again at the National Convention. Please watch for more information regarding this special event.
On July 2, 2021, a new slate of officers will take office at Nutley UNCIO to continue to grow our chapter and all of its good work. The election of officers will take place at our May meeting and the installation in June.
It has been an honor and a pleasure to serve as your president the past two years. In the midst of all the unrest and misinformation regarding Columbus and our Italian heritage, it is increasingly important to stand up and be recognized. We must focus on preserving our heritage for the future generations of Italian-Americans!!
Ciao,
