Italian heritage celebrated at historic Tiro a Segno, founded 1888, hosted by Brooklyn’s Columbian Lawyers

By: Wayne Chambers

Tiro a Segno, a members-only club that has included leading Italian citizens, from powerful politicians to artists like Enrico Caruso, hosted a recent annual gathering of the Columbian Lawyers Association in Brooklyn. The event brought together leading Italian members of the criminal justice community, along with guests and friends, on Oct. 14.

Tiro a Segno, which translates to “fire at the target” or simply “shooting range,” is one of the oldest Italian heritage organizations in the United States, founded in 1888 on a game preserve in Staten Island as a sportsmen’s club for hunters.
