WASHINGTON
SPONTANEOUS DROP BY AT
12TH ANNUAL ITALIAN FALL FESTIVAL

Mitchellville, Maryland
THE PRESIDENT:
BACKGROUND
The 12th Annual Italian Fall Festival at Villa Rosa Home in
Mitchellville, Maryland, is an event to raise funds for the
Holy Rosary Church of Washington, D.C., and for the Villa
Rosa Rest Home itself. This annual event is held on the grounds
of the rest home and in past years has drawn over 10, 000 people.
The composition of the attendees is largely Italian-American from
the Washington-Baltimore areas and represents all ages. Predom-
inantly entire families will attend. The VIPs expected are Secretary
Volpe, Cardinal O'Boyle, two or three Catholic Bishops, and
Prine George's County Commissioner William Gullet. The format
is that of a picnic with exhibits, carnival games, and booths where
Italian food is sold. There will be some bands playing and such
participation events as pole climbing.
Through John Scali, you were invited to attend this event. You regretted
but Tricia accepted in your place and arrangements have been made for
Tricia to attend and give brief remarks. Unknown to everyone is the
fact that you will substitute for Tricia at the last minute, arriving at
3:00 p.m., the time when they expect Tricia and when the attendance
has reached its peak of an estimated 10,000. It is envisioned that
your participation will be similar to that of the Wilkes-Barre drop by
that was so successful last week. Everything will be loosely structured,
leaving all options for you to meet with the attendees. Since arrangements
had been made for Tricia to speak, facilities will be available should
you wish to make some remarks to the crowd. However, there is
absolutely no obligation for you to say anything.
