Solon Italian Club

Northeast Ohio Italian American Events
We are proud to support the Italian American community in Northeast Ohio in any way we can. We encourage our members to attend events held by fellow Italian and Italian American organizations. We hope you'll get to know the members of other clubs and their families. When you meet them, be proud! Tell them you're a member of the Solon Italian Club and let them know you heard about the event from your club's website!

We want to thank Connie Sancetta who keeps us informed about the events in the community.  Connie leads the Italian American Cultural Foundation.  Thanks Connie!

Grazie Mille!
