    Summer is Coming and so is Barbeque Season! The
    Nelson Italian-Canadian Society Is Getting Ready For
    Their Annual Italian Sausage Fundraiser

    Even though the weather this month has been somewhat unpredictable, we do know that soon
    enough endless days of beautiful summer weather will be upon us. As we enter the summer
    months, the barbeques will be going into overtime as we gather with family and friends.
    With the approaching barbeque season the Nelson Italian-Canadian Society Annual Italian
    Sausage Fundraiser is here to help provide the meat for the grill. These tasty sausages have
    NO artificial additives, are Gluten Free, Dairy Free and Tariff Free!
    The NICS Online Store has the following options to suit your tastes and needs. There are hot or
    mild sausages and hot or mild seasoned meat. Pre-orders only, no walk-in sales available.
    The sale runs from May 19 to May 30, 2025.
    Check out the Nelson Italian-Canadian Society Square Online store at:
    https://nelson-italian-canadian-society.square.site/

    The cost per package of six sausages or equivalent weight package of seasoned meat without
    casings is $15.00. Despite increasing food costs we have kept the price the same as last year.
    Supplies of the sausages are limited and this is the only time of year they are available. You are
    well advised to not delay ordering, the sausages always sell out.
    The NICS Directors don’t feel good having to turn away latecomers once the supply has run out.
    This fundraiser, along with others helps the Nelson Italian-Canadian Society provide for local
    student scholarships, local charities and non-profit organizations. These include the Nelson
    Community Food Centre, KidSport Nelson, KERPA, the Kootenay Lake Hospital Foundation
    and others.
    The NICS extends a heartfelt thank you to the community for their ongoing support of our
    fundraising efforts and looks forward to filling your orders of the tasty homemade Italian
    sausages.
    The pickup dates for orders are Friday, June 6, from 3 pm to 6 pm and Saturday, June 7 from 9
    am to 11 am at the Nelson District Rod & Gun Club Hall. A reminder email will be sent to
    everyone who has completed and order.
    If you have any questions, you can call Paul Boscariol at 250-505-6482 or email

    For those who do not have access to a computer but would still like to place a cash or cheque
