It is an honor and a privilege To serve you again this year. This year marks the 35th anniversary of the Geneva Lodge 2397. In 1977 Over 150 members of the Local Italian-American Community Came to-gether to form our lodge. The countless hours of hard work, plan-ning and communities service, has made Geneva lodge the great insti-tution it is today. Congratulations, to Immedi-ate Past President Robert Taddario on a great job the last two years. During his term as President, the lodge has seen many improvements to the building and the organiza-tion as a whole. This coming year, I plan to put emphasis on Cultural activities while having FUN-raisers to help with capital improvements that need to be made to our home so that the next 35 years will be as great as the past 35. Your support is needed and I hope that you can lend a hand. Make your way down to a meeting and see what’s cooking. Our assem-bly meetings will have informative programs, starting with the May meeting. Police Lt. Greg B. Will be here to show you how to prevent identity fraud and protect your home. Hope to see you soon,
Jamie J. Kaim Jr. President
