Please Pardon our dust!
In the coming weeks, we’re hoping to get started on our roof and HVAC project. Please be patient as this construction takes place.
You will notice less events than we usually hold in this timeframe.
Our General Contractor has estimated that this should be completed in mid-November.
Thank you again for all of your support and donations to make this a reality for the IAHF!

November 14 to 16, Friday to Sunday / A Down Sizing Sale / IAHF Hall
What is a Down Size Sale you may ask? To promote expanded uses of the Foundation and enhance income during down times, we are exploring new and innovative usages/events for the Hall. One such event is being planned in November, and that is with IAHF member Frank LoCicero, who is organizing a "down size" sale of over 60 plus years of an arts and craft collection from his worldwide travels as a US Foreign Service Teacher. The items range from rare Capodimonte artisan ceramics, wall hangings, designer holiday fare and treasured boutique items. The Down Size Sale will be November 14, 15 and 16 at the IAHF. Details will follow. And if you too are interested in utilizing the Hall resources, please contact the IAHF for further information. Incidentally, members also get a special discount for Hall rental usage for personal events.

Holiday Giving Announcements at the IAHF Hall
​Family Giving Tree has already started and ends December 3rd!​​​​
Once again, we are going to do a Christmas gift drive for the Family Giving Tree. We have a Christmas tree at the IAHF with 50 cards on it. Each card has a person’s name on it, their approximate age, and the gift they are requesting. There is a second gift listed in case the first one is unavailable. The retail value of the gift should be between $25 and $50. Monetary donations, either cash or check, are certainly welcome, as are gift cards, particularly to stores like Target, Safeway, etc.
​​​
​When you buy a gift, it is very important that you tape the Family Giving Tree card onto the package. You do not gift wrap the package. They also request that you add a toothbrush as it helps to encourage good habits. All gifts must be brought to IAHF by December 3 so that I can get them to the warehouse by December 4. There will be a big box to put gifts in. Stanley has always been extremely helpful in letting people pick up cards or deliver gifts even when there is no function going on as long as the IAHF is open, Tuesdays through Fridays, 10 to 4. All these recipients are needy people. They have been carefully screened, and they are all clients of social service agencies. Your gift will truly go to make someone’s Christmas happy who might not have received anything otherwise.
Grazie Mille! Buon Natale!
