Our 2026 - 2027 Board

 Anthony assumes the role of President, bringing extensive knowledge of the local Italian community to the Board. Anthony has been a member of the IBC since 2017. His ancestral provinces are Abruzzi and Bari 

 Jeff is thrilled to serve as the new Vice President of the Italian Benvenuti Club. With a deep passion for Italian culture and cuisine, he brings enthusiasm and dedication to everything the club represents. He looks forward to introducing fresh ideas and creating exciting new experiences for all members 

 We are very fortunate that Nicolo has again accepted this position to oversee our club's financials. A CPA by profession, Nicolo is a powerful addition to our Board. Nicolo speaks Italian, Spanish, and Mandarin. His ancestral province is Lombardia. 

 Marlene enthusiastically signed up to serve as our secretary and to track issues discussed at our Board meetings. She will also assist the Board with tracking participation for our club events. Marlene's ancestral province is Sicily. 

This position allows me to learn more about others' Italian heritage and share my love of Italy. My Italian family is from the Liguria region, and family names are Gardella, Cereghino, Boitano, Caramella, Pensa, and more! 

Vicki regrets to inform you all that she has no ancestral ties to Italy (France and England are close though, yes?) but she loves people and has thoroughly enjoyed being a part of IBC. Connection & communication are essential to bring us together in peace and harmony as human beings. Let us all be there for one another and create a better world.
