On Saturday, August 28, 2021 a group of approximately thirty Salesian Boys\u2019 and Girls\u2019 Club young \u201cOld Timer\u201d men met in Novato, CA. at the home of board member, Claudio Cipollina to celebrate their annual \u201cFred Scolari\u201d summer BBQ lunch, reunion, and pool party. Randy De Martini, the current Executive Director of the San Francisco club at Sts. Peter and Paul Church has organized this get together for years, bringing guys together from Fred\u2019s era as director to reminisce, to reconnect, and to enjoy some fun in the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Randy noted how Fred was his mentor coming up through the Club as a youth and as Fred\u2019s assistant director for the early part in Randy\u2019s forty plus years working at the North Beach Salesian center. Jeff and Chris Figone, the two sons of longtime Salesian Cooperators, Bob (recently deceased) and Liana Figone were a welcome surprise, given their dad\u2019s recent death. Former club members and now board members, Joe Braucher and Brian Giannino as well as Lance Hughston, brother of Sherri Hughston, Club Chief Operating Officer. The Club community remains tight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fred Scolari grew up at the Club in the 1930\u2019s and early 40\u2019s before embarking upon an NBA career starting with the Washington Capitols and ending with the Boston Celtics. His time spent at the club from 1957-1988 left a big mark on the lives of many boys and young men who were influenced by his own brand of Salesian accompaniment. Fred expected and extracted the very best of those around him, in true Don Bosco style. Although he died nearly twenty years ago, the memory of him and his time spent at the Club remains strong. In 2022, a celebration to commemorate the centenary of his birth is being planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
