I would like to wish all of our members and their families a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a VERY HEALTHY NEW YEAR 2016.

We hope to see all your children and grandchildren at the Breakfast with Santa on Saturday, December 5.

Another wonderful event will be on December 6 with our own CHORAL GROUP lead by PETER DONATELLI at 2:00 p.m.

New Year’s Eve is very popular at the Italian Heritage Center with KINGPIN playing. Get your tickets early as this will be a sellout. Not many places give what we give for this value.

Thanksgiving has passed and I hope that you got to share your time with family and friends. I love this time of year with all my kids and grandkids around.

Thanks go out to Carl Paquette and his Committee and other Volunteers for the excellent job on voting day with pastries and pasta dinners. The proceeds go to the IHC Scholarship Fund.

Our Annual Craft Fair was a HUGE SUCCESS led by KIM TOPPI. It takes a lot of Volunteers to make this work and we have the TEAMWORK it takes. Thank you to EVERYONE who donated their time.

I would like to welcome our newest members to the Italian Heritage Center. They are: Candace and Joseph Loring. Please enjoy what the IHC has to offer.

As always, I would like to thank all of our members for their continued support.

Frank Reali, President

Membership News - Cammy Reali

General Manager - Kim McDonough

I want to thank my wonderful staff for a tremendously successful Fall season with a busy year coming up! November just flew by. We hosted many meetings, corporate parties and "Dancing with the Dentists". This event comes every two years and is a charity event which raises money for donated dental services and the Root Cellar. We had a crowd of over 400 guests and the dancers were amazing; and yes, they were all dentists and their partners. We are now looking forward to the many upcoming holiday parties that are booked.

With 2016 fast approaching its never too early to book your Wedding or event for next year. Our calendar is filling up with weddings, reunions, corporate and social events. I am working with many club members on their upcoming events and I want to thank you for choosing us and referring the IHC to family, friends and co-workers.

Happy Holidays from myself and the staff.

Kim

Country Theme Night in La Cantina

Friday, December 4

7:00 pm

Please join us for Country Theme night with

DJ Jeff Rockwell.

Due to 4 functions being held that day, we will

not be able to serve food at this event.

To Our Members:

I would like to remind folks that it is important to purchase tickets to an event as early as possible.

Unfortunately, waiting until only a few days before an event is to take place makes it difficult for

scheduling staff, buying food, and general planning. Once an event is advertised in the newsletter,

tickets are available for purchase.

We hope you will take this into consideration for the next event you plan to attend.

Thank you.

Kim Toppi

Scholarship Committee - Carl Paquette

The members and friends of the IHC Scholarship Committee really measured up in the month of November. The two major scholarship fundraisers netted enough money to completely fund the 2016 IHC Scholarship. The garden quilt raffle raised $675 toward the fund. The quilt was created by IHC Scholarship Committee member Carol Ferrante. Thanks are not enough to express our appreciation for her time and talents. Members of the IHC Scholarship Committee sold raffle tickets at various events prior to the final push at the Fiera Di Natale. Thanks go out to all who sold and bought tickets and also to Victor and Renee Serio and Tom Noonan for manning the raffle booth at the Fair. The second fundraiser was the election day pastry and bake sale. The IHC Scholarship fund netted over $1,300 on this event. An event of this type requires the assistance of many people-from bakers and sellers, to cooks and runners. All of these people volunteered their time and skills to make this event even more successful than previous years. Thanks go to our bakers: Marie Pardi, Maureen Sidelinger, Carol Ferrante, Kathy Paquette, Theresa Colucci, Cammy Reali, Kim Toppi, Ellie Small, Anna Stanklewitz, Susan Smythe, Deb McNally, Vicki Sanwick and Benita Anderson; to our election day sellers and runners: Martha Milton, Carol Noonan, Tess Hakkila, Barb Pileggi, Vicki Dunn, Carol Ferrante, Kathy Paquette and Marie Pardi: to our cannoli makers: Carol and Joe Ferrante, Julie Ann Johnson and Carl Paquette and to our Head Chef President Reali. We would also like to thank Ann, the IHC Chef extraordinaire, for her help in the kitchen and Kim McDonough for her behind-the-scenes assistance which helped make the event a flawless success. The IHC Scholarship Committee is going on a well deserved hiatus but we will be back in early March with scholarship information. Spread the word! A $1,500 IHC Scholarship will be awarded to a deserving member or dependent. Thanks to everyone for your support. Carl Paquette, Chairperson

Marketing Committee - Melissa Martin

A report from the Marketing Committee:

We dropped an EDDM (Every Door Direct Mailer), which is a high quality, over-sized postcard to generate new business. It is a general postal mailer that conveys that we host an array of events from bereavement to weddings, to corporate meetings, etc. The mail dropped the second week of November. We chose several zip codes including Cape Elizabeth, South Portland, Portland, and Falmouth and targeted a combination of businesses and residences. Approximately 1,700 mailers have been sent.

We hope to track the effectiveness by asking: (1) Where did they hear about IHC?; and (2) If they say a mailer, what is their zip code? We hope by tracking the mailers we can establish areas of success and prove that our investment was fruitful.

Going into the new year we plan on targeting trade shows, conventions and political events. We are looking forward to 2016 and welcome anyone interested in joining our group.

DECEMBER ITALIAN MOVIE NIGHT Saturday, December 5th, 7:00 pm in La Cantina

“SENSO” A classic film. This lush Technicolor tragic romance from Count Luchino Visconti stars Alida Valli as a 19th century Italian countess who, during the Austrian occupation of her country, puts her marriage and political principles on the line by engaging in a torrid love affair with a dashing Austrian lieutenant, played by American actor Farley Granger. Gilded by ornate costumes and sets and a rich classical soundtrack, and featuring flawless performances, this operatic melodrama is an extraordinary evocation of reckless emotions and deranged lust, from one of cinemas great sensualists. As an added feature Italian History Professor Fiorello Ventresco from USM will briefly explain the historical significance of what was going on in pre-unification Italy at the time, as portrayed in the film. Donations accepted to defray cost of DVDs. Join us for snacks and a CLASSIC Italian film.

_______________________________________________________________________________

JANUARY ITALIAN MOVIE NIGHT Saturday, January 9th, 7:00 pm in the Cantina

“Detective Montalbano” Italian Movie Night and Montalbano are back, and we’ve got them! Based on the International Best-Selling Mysteries by Andrea Camilleri, Luca Zingaretti stars as Detective Montalbano in Episode 5, “The Artist’s Touch”. It appears the goldsmith rigged his wheelchair into a suicidal electric chair. Questions arise when it’s revealed that his will, which leaves everything to his brother, is a rigged document. Two brothers’ love for the same woman and revenge is just the beginning of this puzzle for Commissario Montalbano. Movie is in Italian with English subtitles. Very brief, tasteful nudity and a little salty Italian language. Donations are accepted to defray the cost of the DVD. _________________________________________________________________________________________________

REVISITING CHRISTMAS DAY ITALIAN-AMERICAN DINNER

Friday, January 15, 2016, Doors Open at 6:00 pm, $30 per person

It’s a celebration of Christmas Day in an Italian-American household without the stress of gift-giving. While holiday meals are an integral part of our social culture, Christmas Day is a special time for families to gather together after opening gifts and partake of traditional Italian food.

Antipasto: Peperoni arrostiti, melanzane e funghi marinati, olive imbottite fritte, assortimento di vari formaggi e salumi. Il tutto fatto in casa!

Primi Piatti: Pasta fresca fatta in casa, IHC Lasagna Classica, Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese (Homemade Lasagna and Tagliatelle Bolognese)

Secondo: Cotolette di pollo servite con fette di limone con contorni di rape saltate in padella con aglio e olio d oliva, ca-volfiore fritto. (Chicken Cutlets with a wedge of lemon, Broccoli Rape, Fried Cauliflower)

Welcome to the IHC!

Charity Committee - Kathy Paquette

THE ANGELS ARE BACK!

Happy December everyone! The Christmas Giving Tree is set up in the Cantina and the little angels are waiting for you. The Charity Committee decided to help out some local families, known to members of the Italian Heritage Center, who are in need of a little extra help this year. If you would like to help these families, simply choose your angel(s) and purchase the gift(s) that is suggested. Wrap the gift(s) and tape the Angel on the package and return it to the IHC. You can leave it under the tree in the Cantina. There are gift card Angels on the tree also. PLEASE return all gifts by Thursday, December 17. Simply Wish Upon A Star! The Charity Committee has also decided this year to help the Maine Make-A-Wish Foundation. It's called The Wish Closet. The foundation helps out hundreds of children each year that have life threatening medical conditions by granting them their one true wish. All of these children are given a backpack filled with small items to take on their wish trip. As you can imagine, a long plane or car/bus ride can be “challenging” with a small child. There will be gold stars on the giving tree in the Cantina along with the Angels. Each star has suggestions of small gifts that you can purchase if you would like to help fill the backpacks. You can purchase one item or more but please DO NOT WRAP these gifts. There is a box under the tree that you can leave them in. Again, please return all gifts by December 17. The Charity Committee is proud to help our community at Christmas and throughout the year. Many thanks to all of you that donate your time, effort and hard earned money. Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year! Kathy Paquette
