By Herman Santa

On Saturday January 22, 2011, the members of the Spanish American Club, Inc. (SACI) celebrated their 19th Annual General Assembly at the Disabled American Veterans Club in Port St. Lucie to elect a new board of directors.  The meeting was called to order by the president Jimmy Rivera.  Al Feliciano was the Master of Ceremony and conducted the general assembly and announced the candidates, revision of the bylaws and other issues to be resolved.  The amendments of the bylaws were approved and Mary Figliola, was elected president of the club for the fiscal year 2011.  The other elected directors were Kathy Rivera; vice-president, Nancy Rozon; secretary, Nora Candelario; treasurer and Karen Diamond; director.

Three of the past presidents were in attendance for the passing of the gavel.  Herman Santa (1995, 2001, 2004 and 2007), passed the gavel to Gladys Piñeiro (2002), then it was passed to outgoing president Jimmy Rivera (2009, 2010) and finally to 2011 President Mary Figliola.  The meeting ended with the awards ceremony when last year’s president Rivera presented recognition to his directors for their service and contribution and dedication to the club.  Picture plaques were presented to Al Feliciano, Nancy Rozon, Ron Bryson and Mary Figliola.
