The trees are budding, the birds are back, and our tireless president Mike Cali has already started rolling up his sleeves. This summer is going to be the best yet — and we need your hands, your heart, and your support to make it happen.
We have an exciting lineup of improvements planned for this year. From cleanup and landscaping to building upgrades — every project makes the lodge a better place for our members, our families, and our community.
We've already started raking the leaves and collecting fallen branches into a single pile. The grounds are coming together — a few more hands and we'll have it wrapped up.
Clearing the property of winter debris, trimming overgrowth, and getting the exterior ready for summer events and gatherings.
Painting, pressure washing, and general exterior maintenance to keep our building looking its best for Warren's Italian-American community.
New flowers, fresh mulch, and greenery upgrades around the building to welcome members and guests with a beautiful Italian-garden feel.
Ongoing improvements to our hall, kitchen, and gathering spaces to make every event more comfortable and welcoming for our members.
Getting our outdoor spaces ready for summer cookouts, cornhole tournaments, and the community events our members love.
Our crew was out on April 14th getting things moving. Here's a look at the work already underway — and there's plenty more to come.
Mike doesn't just run this club — he's also your personal tech asset.

From building a website from scratch to setting up AI agents that run your business while you sleep — Mike has been doing this for over 30 years and has seen it all. Databases, email systems, business models, automation workflows, custom applications — whatever you throw at him.
“My dad was a proud member of Santa Maria Lodge and helped keep this club running for as long as I can remember. When he passed, I made a promise to myself that I'd give back to the community that meant so much to him — and to me. This is my way of doing that.”
