Battle of the Brains 2014

On January 31st, the Fogolar teams participated in the annual Battle of the Brains fundraiser for the Alzheimer's society of Windsor. The event was held at the Ciociaro Club. Team Polentoni I edged out Polentoni II by a slim margin, but neither team was a match for some of the seasoned trivia teams in attendance. Below are a couple of photos from the event. Special thanks to our one and only Fogolar Furlan Windsor for sponsoring our teams!

Battle of the Brains

On Friday, February 1st, team Polentoni returned to the Ciociaro Club for the Battle of the Brains Trivia night, only this time they brought a second group of 8 friends with them! The overall turnout this year nearly doubled in size from our first visit last January, so the competition was stiff, and the questions a little bit more challenging. Even though the Polentoni teams didn’t win, great fun was had by all. We were especially happy to represent our Fogolar. The event is a fundraiser for the Alzheimer’s Society.

EFASCE Program 2013

Past participants of the EFASCE exchange program have returned from this experience with a better understanding and appreciation of their Friulani roots. 

EFASCE is sponsoring the Progetto Giovani Student Exchange Program again this year. Windsor can participate in conjunction with EFASCE Toronto by sending 5 students.  The program is open to students 15-18 years with ancestors from Friuli-Venezia-Giulia region. All the details are not final at this time but the program will run about 18 days most likely July 12-30 with the cost to the student of approximately $1500 which includes airfare, lodging (hostel in San Vito), food, Italian classes, excursions, tour buses, and all tour costs. This experience has proved valuable to our young people who have participated in the past programs.

Anyone interested can contact June Morasset at 519-969-5439 or jmorasset@hotmail.com.

Fogolar Family Skate

This year’s Family Skate at Lanspeary Park was a great success. We had our best turnout in years, with over 100 members and friends in attendance. A wonderful lunch at the Fogolar was held afterwards for all those who participated. We’re very thankful to all the families that came out to enjoy a couple of hours on the ice. We hope to see everyone at this year’s Carnevale on February 10. Some pictures from the skate are below.
