Arrival date is Saturday September 11, 2010 by 4:00 pm at the Salerno train station where you will be picked up and transported to the village for a welcoming dinner and shown to your lodging. I will post the activities schedule once it is cleared by the Roscigno Vecchia Pro Loco our sister non profit organization in Roscigno. We have been asked to keep the participants to no more that 25 so if you are thinking of going sign up early. Departure date is Saturday September 18, 2010 and for those of you that are driving your arrival and departure is flexible. Last year we had 19 descendents enjoy the beautiful mountian village where our ancestors lived.You will get to see your family house and drink from the same fountian that they drank from. If you have never been to Roscigno it is a moving experience for first time visitors. Come enjoy the magic af this great adventure. |
