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.
