SocietĂ San Giovanni Bosco SS. Crocifisso di Ciminna held its annual Man of the Year gala on March 6 at Alta Villa Banquets. The society was created in 1960 in honor of a patron saint who had dedicated his life to the betterment and education of children. San Giovanni Bosco, canonized in 1934, received the title "Father and Teacher of Youth." The first president elected by the society was none other than its 2016 Man of the Year, President Emeritus Vito P. Cali.
Current President Tony Napoli welcomed more than 600 attendees to the gala. Among them were the leaders of many Italian-American organizations, plus special guests such as Secretary of State Jesse White and Judge Angela Petrone, who inducted numerous new young adult members into the society.
