Back in the year 2008, the San Francisco Italian Athletic Club (SFIAC) was preparing a celebration for their 90th Anniversary. Gianrico Pierucci, SFPD Police Inspector and author of the book, The Heart of North Beach, was serving on the board of directors of the SFIAC.
The club's president, Steve Landi, appointed Pierucci to be the 90th Anniversary Celebration Committee Chair. In the past, the SFIAC had celebrated its anniversaries with various weekend activities, topped off with a black tie dinner dance.
