Bocce

Champions of Europe

La Madonna della Civita
The Sanctuary of the Madonna della Civita is one of the oldest in all of Italy. The Madonna holds a special place in my heart because of my family’s devotion to her.

Triora’s Dark Past
Triora is a picturesque town located on the Italian-French border in the province of Imperia within the region of Liguria. It is an elite member of I Borghi Piú Belli d’Italia and winner of the Bandiere Arancione from the Touring Club Italia. Even though it is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy there was a time when Triora was called the Salem of Italy.

Bruno Sammartino
Bruno Sammartino remains an icon in the Italian-American community, though a forgotten one with the younger generations. In 2002, Bruno attended the National Italian American Foundation’s 27th Anniversary Gala Awards Dinner to present a foundation scholarship in his name. As Thom Loverro of the Washington Times noted in an article, “Robert DeNiro, Sophia Loren and Chuck Mangione were among the heavyweights who were honored or attended the affair. There was only one true heavyweight on hand, though, Mr. Living Legend himself: the great Bruno Sammartino.”
