President’s Message
Our Club was formed to bring together those of Italian ancestry and those whose forefathers chose Canada as their adopted land
to preserve our heritage and culture and to share these with all citizens.
And in so doing to create understanding, goodwill and unity.
God Bless.
Vince Orlando
President
Ladies Auxiliary
On the evening of June 11th our Ladies’ Auxiliary held its pre-summer Dinner Meeting – the theme Flowers & Gardens. Pre dinner liqueur shots, a delicious meal with wine, and a superb strawberry shortcake with ice cream for dessert. Who could ask for more? The ladies took part in fun, yet challenging games, to determine who would win and thus take home a gift for the patio or garden. Levity and laughter rang throughout the hall and a wonderful time was had by all! Thanks to everyone who helped to make this a fun and enjoyable evening! Special thanks to lady members: Sylvia Antinozzi for table decorations, and centrepieces, and for providing us with her special brand of entertainment. She sang, a cappella, a beautiful and nostalgic summertime song for our entertainment.Anne Taylor for organizing and leading the games. Christine Saini for welcoming attendees, collecting and counting money. Louisa Defonzo for organizing transportation and accommodation related to the Soo convention in October.
La sera dell’ 11 giugno, l’Auxiliary delle donne ha tenuto il suo Dinner Meeting pre-estivo – il tema Flowers & Gardens. Scatti di liquore pre-cena, un delizioso pasto con vino e una superba torta alla fragola con gelato per dessert. Chi potrebbe chiedere di più? Le donne hanno preso parte a giochi divertenti ma impegnativi, per determinare chi vincerebbe e portare a casa un regalo per il patio o il giardino. La levità e le risate hanno suonato per tutta la sala e tutti si sono divertiti. Grazie a tutti coloro che hanno contribuito a rendere questa serata divertente e piacevole, e un ringraziamento speciale ai seguenti membri della signora per le ore di volontariato che hanno speso per contribuire ulteriormente a rendere la serata un successo.Sylvia Antinozzi per decorazioni da tavola e centrotavola, e per aver cantato, a cappella, una bellissima e nostalgica canzone estiva per il nostro divertimento.Anne Taylor per l’organizzazione e la conduzione dei giochi.Christine Saini per accogliere i partecipanti, raccogliere e contare i soldi. Louisa Defonzo per l’organizzazione di trasporti e alloggi legati alla convention Soo in ottobre.
Next, I remind you that our final spaghetti supper before the summer break takes place on Sunday, June 23rd. Take a break from cooking, come out and enjoy a great plate of pasta and meatballs! A huge thank you to our patrons for your unwavering support in this endeavour! And of course a huge thank you to the all ladies who volunteer their time either by making meatballs, serving food, setting and clearing tables, making up the take out orders, taking the orders to our patrons in the lobby, kitchen clean up, selling tickets, collecting and counting money, etc. You know who you are and your work is invaluable! Thank you! Vi ricordo che la nostra ultima cena di spaghetti prima della pausa estiva si terrà domenica 23 giugno. Prenditi una pausa dalla cucina, e goditi un ottimo piatto di pasta e polpette! Un enorme ringraziamento ai nostri clienti per il vostro sostegno costante in questo sforzo!E naturalmente un enorme ringraziamento a tutte le donne che offrono volontariamente il loro tempo facendo polpette di carne, servendo cibo, apparecchiando e sgombrando tavoli, componendo gli ordini da prendere, portando gli ordini ai nostri clienti nella hall, pulendo la cucina, vendendo biglietti, raccogliere e contare i soldi, ecc. Sai chi sei e il tuo lavoro è inestimabile! Grazie!
As the summer break fast approaches I wish to extend best wishes to ‘all’ Davedi Club members and patrons for a happy and safe summer break. May your travels, wherever they take you, be memorable, enjoyable, and above all may you return home safely! God bless! Mentre la pausa estiva si avvicina rapidamente, desidero esprimere i migliori auguri a tutti i membri e ai nostri clienti del Club Davedi per una vacanza estiva felice e sicura. Che i vostri viaggi, ovunque vi possano portare, siano memorabili, piacevoli e, al di sopra, che ritornate tutti a casa sani e salvi! Che Dio vi benedica! Ciao e a la prossima!

Poesia
Salve o dolce Vergine, salve o dolce Madre,
In Te esulta tutta la Terra ed i cori degli angeli.
Tempio santo del Signore, gloria delle Vergini,
Tu giardino del Paradiso, soavissimo fiore.
Tu sei trono altissimo, Tu altar purissimo,
in Te esulta, o piena di grazia, tutta la creazione.
Paradiso mistico, fonte sigillata,
il Signore in Te germoglia l’albero della vita.
O Sovrana semplice, o Potente umile,
apri a noi le porte del Cielo, dona a noi la luce.
Mons. Marco Frisina
La gente é il piu grande spettacolo del mondo. E non si paga il biglietto
