There was a very special visitor at the Mascalzone Latino Sailing School yesterday. Our friend Frank from Boston (one of the most active members of the PIB – Professionisti Italiani a Boston), came round to see us. He is a really special person, always available for the kids who in the past six years have had the chance to fly to Boston for a unique and unforgettable experience.
Touring for several weeks round Italy with his sister Carol, when he passed through Naples he had the chance of an early meeting with Miriana and Ilaria,the two girls who in July will leave for the fantastic and not to be missed American adventure, accompanied by their trainer Salvatore.
It was a really special evening for everyone, but above all for the Sailing School which saw again Laura (missing from “home” since 2014), Francesca, who for health reasons has been away for the past year and even Raffaele, present in a video callto participate in the evening.
Then it was thrilling to listen to what Frank had to say. After seven years of experience with our kids he had the chance to see first-hand the importance of Vincenzo Onorato’s project and what it means for the kids, whose experience in the States enriched them in human terms and made an important contribution to their lives, forging new links and making new friends.
