Eureka Lodge #1274

October’s polenta and chicken Pinochi and Stagnoli scholarships fundraising dinner will be held on October 20th from 4:00 to 6:00PM at the Elks Lodge on Herrick Avenue.  Thank you to Bonnie DuMond and all who are working so hard to sell tickets.

The Italian festival at Redwood Ballfields had sunny but breezy weather.  Twelve teams participated in the bocce tournament.  Team Razzle, (Bob Doerr and Traudy Gretchen) won the championship. Team Dazzle (Ron Dawson and Ben Herman) finished second.

Many thanks to Betty Senestraro for graciously providing the 1st and 2nd place prizes.

Donna again made polenta.  Dave Olivieri and Nick Giannini served up delicious sausage bocce dogs with loads of onions and peppers.

Thank you to Dave and Donna Olivieri and all the many others who helped set up (and take-down) the festival.   

Special recognition goes to Ralph Giannini, Ron Dawson, and MaryAnn Evans for organizing and staffing the refreshment bar.

The raffle did very well.  Thank you again to Betty Senestraro for gathering 25 raffle prizes!

And finally the Accordionaires deserve a big hand.  Their music was outstanding this year.

Our October business meeting will be on October 22nd at 6PM.  I am sure there will be special Halloween treats.  Do not miss it.
