Attendance at the 87th Grand Convention was very stimulating. It was nice to be among so many people who are passionate about their Italian heritage. It is true, Italians are the friendliest people in the world. State President Arlene Nunziati went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and heard. We were fortunate to have our National President, Michael Polo, attend this year’s convention. He shared with us his vision of what the Sons and Daughters of Italy in America should strive to be.
