Lou,

Your children will adore Villa!  The cobblestones are still there and
waiting for a whole new generation of scampering feet!

Nora,
 
thank you for your wonderful letter.  I emigrated from La Villa when I was 6 years old and it's always held a special place in my heart.  When I return this summer I want my children to run on the cobbled stones and through the narrow alleys that I recall from my childhood.
 
I'll post some pictures when I get back.   
 
Take care.

Dear Lou,

Take it from me...Villavallelong a is a hell of a lot more than ..."four
roads, about two hundred scattered houses, a few cafes and a few
restaurants. No movie theatre or supermarket, but it does have a tiny
bank branch. It might have a gas station by now."

It's a fabulous medieval town in the most spectacular mountain setting
imaginable, and has more than six fountains of water spewing forth clear
mountain water, devoid of chemicals and other additives of any kind, and
is a treasure beyond compare!

The people of the town are the most welcoming, generous, genuine,
unassuming, Christian, humble, self-effacing, patient, philosophical and
hilarious people on the face of the earth!

As for Villa itself, there is a great supermarket that takes VISA, debit
cards, cash, etc. The bank is also very modern with an outside bank
machine that can be accessed at all hours. And there is a gas station
with a bar and a gift shop and the owner also has a miniature "Kiddie
Train" to take kids on rides through the town....the cutest sight ever!

As an "outsider" being taken to Villa by my fiancé for the first time in
1968, I fell in love with the place from the first moment and the love
affair continues!

Enjoy your holiday! However could you not! Nora

I wrote an article about Villavallelonga for The Toronto Star back in June 2007 encouraging Canadians to visit.
 
Does anyone in Villa know if the article generated any non-ethnic tourism?
 
When I was writing the article, I was told by the Italian Tourist Office here in Toronto not to write it because sending Canadians to Abruzzo is not a priority for the Italian government, as the region doesn't have the proper infrastructure to support increased tourism.
 
 
 
 
All I can say is, thank God Villavallelonga has the articulate, English-speaking Maria Candida spearheading promotion activities for Villa, and her husband has done a wonderful job creating a website that keeps us informed about Villa's social life.

Hi all,
 
How is Villa for visitors who don't speak the language?  I don't have plans to visit anytime soon though unfortunately.  My parents will be in Rome (and other places) this summer but won't be able to make it to Villa as their schedule is restricted by the cruise ship itinerary.
Thanks!

Dear Lou,

Take it from me...Villavallelonga is a hell of a lot more than ..."four

roads, about two hundred scattered houses, a few cafes and a few
restaurants. No movie theatre or supermarket, but it does have a tiny
bank branch. It might have a gas station by now."

It's a fabulous medieval town in the most spectacular mountain setting
imaginable, and has more than six fountains of water spewing forth clear
mountain water, devoid of chemicals and other additives of any kind, and
is a treasure beyond compare!

The people of the town are the most welcoming, generous, genuine,
unassuming, Christian, humble, self-effacing, patient, philosophical and
hilarious people on the face of the earth!

As for Villa itself, there is a great supermarket that takes VISA, debit
cards, cash, etc. The bank is also very modern with an outside bank
machine that can be accessed at all hours. And there is a gas station
with a bar and a gift shop and the owner also has a miniature "Kiddie
Train" to take kids on rides through the town....the cutest sight ever!

As an "outsider" being taken to Villa by my fiancé for the first time in
1968, I fell in love with the place from the first moment and the love
affair continues!

Enjoy your holiday! However could you not! Nora

La Villa isn't really a "village" but rather four roads, about two hundred scattered houses, a few cafes and a few restaurants. No movie theatre or supermarket, but it does have a tiny bank branch. It might have a gas station by now.
 
La Villa was featured on the daily Italian news. Check out the video at: http://www.prolocovillavallelonga.it/

Lou, when you get back, could you please post pictures of the village?  I would
love to see them.  I always wondered what it looks like "now".  Have a great
time.

Grande.  One of her brother's was Dominic Grande, son of Cesidio.  I have been

Visit the forum at www.villavallelonga.org .
Here you can post whatever you like about la Villa, keep up to date with news and events, search relatives, etc...
The forum community (and the web site) is just starting and is made up mostly by the younger Villa generation, but there is room for all especially for the "PAESANS" abroad who wish to keep in contact with their "concittadini" here in their home town.

So drop by and say hello to us all here in Villavallelonga .

Thank you,

Hi everyone,
 
I notice that there are alot of people who are looking for relatives that may be still living in Villa, States, Canada or any other part of the world because they are going back to visit in Italy, or simply because they want to connect with long lost family members.  A good way to do this would be to look up "villavallelonga" on facebook and join the group.  I am a member there and if you want to look me up, i'm Ivana Di Cesare.  There you can put all your postings and search for people.  If your not a member of facebook, I recommend you put up a profile...it's a great tool.  Another site you can visit is www.prolocovillavallelonga.it
 
Enjoy!  Ivana

Hi Kathy,

I too - remember the instant messaging board... not sure if that was a feature Yahoo took away. I haven't been on board as much and can't seem to find it...

Ya, it was fun once you figured out how to use the instant messaging board...

It had it's quirks though...

As far as I know, they still have the Festa's at MaryLake (in King City)...

Here's a link to the MaryLake Home Page

http://206.223. 178.54/canada/ MarylakeShrine/ Home.htm

Maybe someone from the MaryLake committee can answer you better!



Get the name you've always wanted ! @ymail.com or @rocketmail.com.

Hi Joe,

Please check out this website for family history research...

There is year by year data from 1864 to 1858... (Birth, Marriage and Death

Hope someone reads your post and helps you further.

I hope you have a wonderful time in Italy.

Italian Red Cross Responds to Earthquake in L'Aquila

Monday, April 06, 2009 —

The American Red Cross will continue to monitor the situation and communicate with our sister society, the Italian Red Cross, and the International Federation, and stands ready to provide further assistance if requested. The Italian Red Cross has not yet asked for international assistance.

At 3:30 a.m. a powerful 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck the city of L'Aquila in central Italy, 75 miles northeast of Rome. It’s the worst earthquake to hit this region in nearly 30 years.

According to recent reports at least 90 people have been killed and 400 injured. The numbers of dead and injured are expected to grow as search and rescue efforts continue. Tens of thousands of people have become homeless in the city which has a population of 70,000.

Italian Red Cross rescue teams were on the scene of the disaster within an hour after the earthquake struck, searching for people trapped in the rubble and providing emergency care for the injured.

The Italian Red Cross has established a field hospital to relieve the burden on local health facilities which are under an enormous strain due to the sudden upsurge in demand. Also, the Italian Red Cross has set up mobile kitchens with the capacity to provide 10,000 meals a day run by a team of 16 Italian Red Cross staff and 30 volunteers. Two soup kitchens providing up to 400 meals a day have been mobilized to respond to the needs of L’Aquila Hospital, whose patients are being evacuated to other cities.

Thirty-six ambulances from the Italian Red Cross are on rotation to evacuate injured people from L'Aquila to hospitals in Tagliacozzo, Pescina and Avezzano. They are also providing care for children evacuated from an orphanage in San Gregorio. Additionally, five psychological support teams from the Italian Red Cross are now on the ground to help deal with the emotional needs of survivors.

Additional resources, including 30 search and rescue dog units, five other psychological support teams and three veterinary teams, are on standby depending on the needs.

With up to 10,000 buildings in the city believed to be badly damaged or destroyed, the Italian Red Cross foresees growing problems with shelter, warm clothes and food provisions for the survivors.

“Once we have addressed the need to reinforce emergency health care in the region, the next major challenge, apart from urgent search and rescue, is to find a solution for the thousands of homeless survivors,” says Tommasso Della Longa, Head of Communication for the Italian Red Cross.

Working in close coordination with the Italian Civil Protection, the Italian Red Cross has activated its national operations center, as well as four regional offices, to respond effectively to the growing needs of survivors.

In consultation with the Italian Red Cross, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is currently assessing which assistance can be best provided right now to supplement and support the efforts of the Italian Red Cross.

Since 1968 the International Federation and member National Societies have supported the Italian Red Cross three times after earthquakes in 1968, 1976 and in 1980. In 1980 some 3,000 people lost their lives after a deadly quake hit the region of Naples. In 1992 a quake in Umbria claimed 13 lives and countless cultural treasures. The most recent deadly quake was in 2002 when 30 people died, including 27 pupils and their teacher, in the southern Italian town of San Giuliano di Puglia.

A powerful earthquake struck a huge swath of central Italy as residents slept on Monday morning, killing at least 90 people when thousands of houses, churches and other buildings collapsed or were damaged.

Yes, it is...very close.    I spoke with someone in Villa this morning
and they felt the earthquake but fortunately, there was no damage and no
fatalities there.

There are many people though, from Villa, who live in Aquila and the
surrounding area.  My prayers and thoughts are with them and everyone
else who lost

Their home, and most importantly, family members.  God be with you all.

Villavallelonga was spared the destruction. L'aquila got the worst of
it.

Hi, Kathy Coccia here. A few years ago when I was contacting people we were doing a instant messaging board and it was so fun. Is that still aviable to do? I found out that I was a relative to a Tantalo ( Tantelo) who was the organizer of the Vllavallelonga site out of Toronto. I'd like to know if there still are big family reunions in Toronto in the summer.

Thank you for replying.  Glad to hear Villa did not suffer any effects of the
earthquake.  On a lighter note, my  great-great grandfather was also named
Domenico Grande.  My grandfather was Cesidio Grande, whose father was Bartolomeo
Grande, Domenico's son.  They were all born & raised in Villa.  Do you recognize
any of the names?

I visited Villa with my husband in 2004 and loved it.  Met a lot of my relatives
still there.  Have a nice day.
