Siamo Una Famiglia

AMHS members and friends enjoyed an evening at Nationals Park for the annual Italian Heritage Night on June 18 to see the Washington Nationals take on the Arizona Diamondbacks (Alas, the Nats lost 5-0). All attendees received a special jersey for the event. Pictured are (left to right) AMHS Treasurer Peter Bell, President Chris Renneker, 2nd VP Rico Allegrino, Tomasso Mazza, Ivan Jones, Ravi Ganesh and Frankie Yupari.

On July 13,  AMHS President Chris Renneker, Peter Bell, Barbara Friedman, and Sam Yothers were joined by members of the Office of Textiles and Apparel, U.S. Department of Commerce, all of whom work with Maria D’Andrea-Yothers. The group enjoyed a one-hour walk along the C&O Canal Towpath in Georgetown, followed by an excellent lunch of porchetta sandwiches from Porchetta District. Anyone looking for a great porchetta sandwich in the Washington, DC area – Porchetta District is the place to go (they cater too!). Photo credit: Maria D’Andrea-Yothers
