Welcome to The North Italian Club, a community organization for individuals of Italian heritage and anyone who loves Italian culture. Our club works together for the betterment of the community through various volunteer efforts and outreach programs. We also host a variety of events throughout the year, including a delicious Polenta event, a Summer picnic, a Parade, and an Annual Mass to remember and honor our deceased members.

We invite you to join us and be a part of our vibrant Italian community at The North Italian Club.
