What is The IASC?

We are a social-fraternal organization that provides a wonderful place where Americans of Italian descent, along with their friends and relatives, can gather to promote enduring friendships together with an understanding and appreciation of the Italian-American heritage.

We have dedicated our cooperation to building a better community, with prejudice toward none.

Who We Are?

We have, among our members, people from all walks of life and professions: doctors, lawyers, nurses,  business owners, homemakers, salespersons,  police officers, musicians, entertainers,  accountants, educators, athletes, cooks, butchers,  and, of course, retirees. Our members range in age from twenty-five to over ninety. In keeping with our tradition of family,   we promote an environment where families are welcomed and appreciated.

Once monthly, we conduct a special theme social dinner dance, host special ‘dinner shows’ featuring top entertainment, and our Pub night, open to the public, for a night of complimentary appetizer buffet, great live bands, and dancing with a small entry fee.

What We Do?

We prepare and serve Pizza and delicious dishes every Tuesday for members and their guests. Each Friday, we provide our members and guests with live entertainment and a specially prepared menu for dining and dancing. Our beautiful lounge provides an atmosphere for relaxing and meeting friends.

We are a not-for-profit organization; however, both our Lounge and Grand Ballroom are available for a limited number of dates for non-member banquets and affairs. Our professional chef has prepared wonderful event packages to suit all budgets and needs. For more information, call 445-1893 Monday – Friday, 9:00am to 3:00pm, to contact our Banquet Manager to plan your next special event with us.

All persons born in Italy, or of Italian descent, and their spouses, are eligible to apply for Regular membership in the organization. All persons not of Italian descent may apply for Associate membership. Of course, there are initiation fees and dues with membership. We are governed by an elected Executive Board, and hold meetings of the general membership once each month.
