PRESIDENT ANGELO MESSAGE... Read More >>>
Ciao a tutti,
I realize summer hasn’t officially started; however, to me, it feels like it has, possibly because we’ve already had some summer-like temperatures, but also because we don’t have a May membership meeting.
What is happening, though? By the time you read this, we will have enjoyed our annual IAC Spring Golf tournament. I won’t attempt to predict the winners, but I am quite confident it will not be my team. Thank you to Terry Mayfield for another great tournament. He works hard to organize the event and somehow presents so many great prizes for the winners, including raffle winners.
Next, thanks to all the volunteers who participated in our annual Nevada Special Olympics Bocce Tournament. Thanks to our IAC bocce team members who officiated the tournament. The athletes and their families love our hospitality, especially our spaghetti and meatballs. We love hosting this annual event for many years now and hopefully for many years to come.
Our annual Spring Backyard BBQ picnic will be on May 10. The picnic starts at 6 pm. The cost is $20.00 for members and $30.00 for guests (non-members). Kids under 12 are free. *Guests must be accompanied by a member. Not open to the general public.RSVP is a MUST by May 1.
Our Scholarship committee, Tony Ricevuto, Nick Montana, and Kevin Boyle, have been hard at work reviewing and scoring all the applications for this year’s scholarship awards luncheon on June 28. Reservations information will be in next month’s newsletter, however, If you would like to donate to this worthy cause, please let me know through our rsvp@iacvegas.com address. Donations are tax-exempt.
Please see the enclosed information regarding the IAC Cookbook project, thoughtfully led by our dedicated member, Roger Gallizzi. Roger, an accomplished cookbook author, has generously volunteered his time and expertise to assemble and publish this special edition featuring your family’s photos, stories, and treasured recipes.
This cookbook will be a true keepsake, and we encourage you to invite your family members to be part of this meaningful and fun project. Best of all, all proceeds will benefit our Scholarship Foundation.
Thank you, Roger, for your generosity and for bringing this wonderful project to life!
See you all soon,
Angelo A. Cassaro
Who doesn’t enjoy a great, authentic Italian recipe passed down for generations? Who doesn’t enjoy hearing the stories of emigrating to the USA from the “old country?” We thought we’d put the two together as a way to raise monies for the scholarship fund. scholarship fund.

IAC COOKBOOK PROJECT FOR THE SCHOLARSHIP FUND... Read More >>>
Who doesn’t enjoy a great, authentic Italian recipe passed down for generations? Who doesn’t enjoy hearing the stories of emigrating to the USA from the “old country?” We thought we’d put the two together as a way to raise monies for the scholarship fund.
Each Member Family writes and submits a brief family history with photograph(s) for one page of the book. The opposite page will contain a family recipe of your choice. Families may submit multiple pages for different family members or generations, each with a family recipe. The book will be divided by apertivi, antipasti, primi, secondi, contorni, and dolci. The book will be published and sold on Amazon and sold here at the Club. All the profits from book sales go to the scholarship fund.
If you’re interested, contact Roger Gallizzi, IAC member, at roger@charity-chef.com and give your name, phone number, and email address. That’s all you need to get started.
You’ll be contacted for family photo, story, and recipe, etc. We’ll assist with any technology issues. Recipe will be re-created, standardized, photographed and submitted for your approval, or you can make it at home and photograph it. We’ll give you some guide lines on the photos so we have a consistent look. The back cover will be a group shot of all contributors and the front cover will be a photograph of the club, and inside a little club history.
MESSAGE FROM Gabriella Quarantello Rudeman (Happy Mother's Day)... Read More >>>
For Italian Americans, Mother’s Day is celebrated on the secondSunday of May the same as in Italy and the United States. Mothers are often the cornerstone in Italian-American households, they are known for keeping the family together and very well fed too! Our mothers are our emotional anchors, guardians of tradition, and providers of love and nourishment. They are known for their strong family bonds, dedication to their children, and fiercely protective nature. Mothers are deeply involved in their children’s lives, even after they reach adulthood, offering guidance, support, and continuing to nurture them. This is a day to honor and celebrate our mothers, grandmothers, and other mother figures with flowers, gifts, and quality time. La mamma is respected and celebrated by bambini and adults alike, who lavish their mothers with flowers and gifts for La Festa della Mamma.
Did you know that Mother’s Day was first celebrated in Italy in 1957—around 50 years after it was founded in this country—the Italian Mother’s Day tradition was started by a parish priest in Assisi, a hillside village in Umbria. Word of the festivities spread throughout the surrounding countryside. One year later, the holiday was adopted across the entirety of Italy’s 20 regions.
Giovani would like to wish all of our mammas a very Happy Mother’s Day and to thank them for their unconditional love and keeping our Italian culture and traditions alive for us. In turn, we want to continue their legacy.
If you are interested in joining Giovani, please scan the QR code. In April, Giovani enjoyed an evening of art and vino, while listening to some of Italy’s fine arts and culture, painting a beautiful painting, and sipping on vino. Please join us for the IAC Annual BBQ in the backyard on Saturday, May 10th at 6pm. Please make sure your RSVP by May 1st at rsvp@lasvegas.com.
Ciao!
Gabriella Quarantello Ruderman
