PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
IMPORTANT MEMBERSHIP NEWS
Ciociaro Club Membership Drive & Pre-Junior Kids Program
Dear Members:
I hope this letter finds you and your family well. I am sending this letter to update you on two exciting initiatives
that we are undertaking for the 2014 calendar year with the focus of ensuring that our Club remains strong
and stable as we look toward the future.
Temporary Membership Drive
As you already may have heard, the General Assembly, through recommendation of the Board of Directors,
has approved a Temporary Membership Drive which will be in effect until October 31, 2014. I encourage
you to notify the members of your family, and friends who qualify to become members under the provisions
of the Constitution, and who have not yet done so, to take advantage of the special temporary membership
rates that we have introduced. This limited time offer includes the waiving of all fees for Junior Members and
of the initiation fee for General Members. (Please see following attached pages for complete details).
The goal for this Temporary Program is to enrol as many Ciociari as possible. This will enable our Club to be
relevant for many more generations to come.
Pre-Junior Kids Program
The General Assembly has also approved the creation of a Pre-Junior Kids Program which is directed to
children from ages infant to 13 years old. Children of General Members will be enrolled free of charge. The
Club will organize a series of events that will take place throughout the year catering specifically to this group.
This will allow us to nurture their love and understanding of our rich Ciociaro heritage.
Once enrolled in this program your child (or children) will receive a complimentary age appropriate gift and a
Family Tree that they can proudly hang in your home that will also serve to document their Ciociaro heritage.
Going forward it is our intention to enrol all children of General Members into this program. Similarly, starting
in 2014 Members’ children must be enrolled in this program to receive benefits such as the Ciociaro
Children’s Christmas Party.
Applications to become a: 1) General Member; 2) Junior Member; or 3) to join the Pre-Junior Kids Program,
are available online at ciociaroclub.com or from the Club’s Office. Call 519 737-6153 for more information.
Sincerely,
Giulio Malandruccolo, President
In Loving Memory of Valentino Rossi
It is with sad hearts that we announce the passing of our long time Board
Member and Friend.
He will always be remembered in our hearts with great memories that we can
cherish.
"Forever in Our Hearts Valentino"

Paese storico della Ciociaria: CASTELLIRI
Il territorio di Castelliri, bagnato dal Liri, si estende ai piedi dei monti
Ernici. Per l’amenità dei luoghi, si riscontra la presenza dell’uomo sin dagli
albori civiltà. Nicolucci ha rinvenuto oggetti risalenti all’epoca della pietra
e una necropoli dell’età romana. Il Momsen riferisce che nei suo territorio
sono state rinvenute due iscrizioni: una di un cambiavalute cereatino e
l’altra (in localit a Madonna della Neve) riguardante duonviri che fecero
lasstricare una strada. Questa si snodava in località Collasturo e si pensa
che sia una diramazione della via Latina, alla cui inistra sorgeva, come
tramanda Strabone, Cereate. In questo municipio, secondo Frontino e
Plutarco, nacque il grande Caio Mario. E’ opinione dominante che
Castelliri era ricompreso nel territorio di Cereate, pertanto, l’arx di
quest’ultima roccaforte degli Emici, a confine con i Vilsci, potrebbe
individuarsi in località Codarda. Presumibilmente distrutta durante le
invasioni barbariche, nello stesso luogo, fu ricostruito nel medioevo un
modesto Castello, che ci è stato tramandato dalle fonti con il nome di
Castelluccio. Ricompreso nel ducato di Sora, è appartenuto ai signori legati
ai D’Angiò e poi ad altri seguaci degli Aragonesi. Nel 1580 passò ai
Bonconpagni e poi al Regno di Napoli. Nella chiesa parrocchiale dedicata
a S. M. Sàlome, vi è custodita una croce del 1600, che appartenne al
cardinale Baronio. Nel 1873 Castelluccio di Sora, cosi si chiamava in quel
tempo, contava 1640 abitanti, un ospedale ed una banca agraria. Con R.D.
del 1878 fu autorizzato a chiamarsi Castelliri. Distrutta dal terremoto del
1915 è stata ricostruita ed oggi ha una fiorente area industriale.
The territory of Castelliri, washed by the Liri River, extends as far as the
foor of Ernici mounts. For the pleasantness of the places, the presence of
man can be traced since the most remote times of civilization. The
archeaologist Nicolucci brought to light pieces dating back to the Stone
Age and a necropolis of the Iron Age. Pierleoni maintains that the last
discovery shows that on the territory a pagus (a district) rose, which also
survived in the Roman period. Momsen reports the discovery on this
territory, of two inscriptions; one tells of a “Cereatino” money-changer and
the other (in Madonna della Neve locality) concerning a “duonviri” who
ordered to pave a street. It wound along Collasturo oand it is thought to
be a branch of the via Latina; on its left it stood, as Strabo hands down,
Cereate. In this municipality, according to Frontino and Plutarch, the
great Gaius Marius was born. The mainstream theory holds that
Castelliri was part of the territory of Cereate, therefore, the “arx” of the
last fortress of the Hernicians at the borders with the Volscians, could be
recognized as Codards. Presumably destroyed during the barbaric
invasions, in the same place, a modest Castle was rebuilt in the Middle
Ages, which has been handed down with the name “Castelluccio”. Part
of the dukedom of Sora, it later belonged first to the lords who were tied
to the D’Angio’ and then to Aragonese followers. In 1580 it went into
the hands of the Boncompagni family and then to the Kindgom of
Naples. In the parish church dedicated to S.M. Sàlome, there is a 1600’s
cross, that belonged to Cardinal Baronio. In 1873 Castellucio of Sora,
as it was called at that time, numbered 1640 inhabitants, had a hospital
and an agricultural bank. With Royal Decree of 1878 it was authorized
to call itself Castelliri. Destroyed in the earthquake of 1915, it was
rebuilt and today is a fluorishing industrial area.
