Greetings from Redding:
We were very happy to initiate five new members at our general meeting in August, all with Italian backgrounds. We welcome Dean Clark, Mary Clark, Lynette Porter, Lois Morgan and Carolyn Gomes. I am sure they will all enjoy Shasta Lodge as members of our family. We have five more applications we hope to initiate soon.
Congratulations to our former Junior member Andrew Zufall and his wife Lindsey Zufall, the two new Drs. Zufall in Redding. They both graduated in June, Andrew with his dental degree and Lindsey with her veterinary degree. Welcome back
It was an evening to remember! State Third Vice President, Louis Lodi, swore in 15 new members to our Lodge under a balloon arch of green, red and white, the colors of the Italian flag.

The Gold Country Sons and Daughters of Italy located in El Dorado Hills, CA, is proud to announce the winners of our 2022 Scholarships. They and their families were guests at our lodge’s annual May ravioli dinner meeting. Each student, who was awarded the Italian Heritage Scholarship, shared the stories of their heritage, immigration, and success in the United States of America. They also shared their career plans. Thanks to successful fundraisers (Bocce tournaments and local restaurants support), each student was awarded
On June 12th Sunday afternoon, Jimmy Maestretti did the most mouth watering Salmon dinner for us. He even went so far as to have tortellini with a light creamy pesto sauce, Caesar Salad and oven roasted veggies. We had 70 people that were overwhelmed with the quality of the dinner, me included. It was great to see Fred Schram in attendance. He just got over a bout with Covid and pneumonia and a stay in the hospital. Welcome back Fred... He looked great by the way.!
Hope everyone is well and thriving. This pandemic
