Today’s #MemberMonday focuses on the one, the only, Martin Cifone. He was born in Southwest Philadelphia, PA in an Italian Community. Then Martin moved to Yeadon, PA when he was 5. From there he moved to Harrisburg, PA and at 18, got married and moved to Maryland in 1988. Martin has been in Harford County since 1999. Martin works at HPS Management in HdG as a VP of Community Operations and has
been with them since 2016.
All 4 of Martin’s grandparents are full Italian coming to the USA from Abruzzo region of Italy in the late 1890’s and early 1900’s. His grandfather on his father’s side was a baker and owned a pizza shop in Philly while my grandfather (Crudeli) on his mother’s side owned a tailor shop in Philly. Both Martin’s father and his sister worked for the navy in the Aviation Supply department, while his mother worked in a local library and in the church’s daycare.
Martin’s father was a Fourth Degree Knight in the Knights of Columbus which inspired him to join SIAB and carry on the tradition of giving back to the community alongside my Italian Brothers! Martin has fond memories of attending mass at the Italian Church in Philly weekly, then getting together with his cousins, aunts, and uncles for the traditional Sunday dinner. The closeness of family while growing up is an important tradition to pass along to the next generation. It is truly a tradition that shouldn’t die. Anytime Martin can get together with his cousins it feels like they were never separated for long.
SIAB offers the opportunity for Martin to enjoy the same brotherhood his dad experienced in the Knights of Columbus. Many of the SIAB members had similar childhood experiences so getting involved in our community and helping other people comes very naturally. Martin enjoys working at the Linguini and Crab event and participating in other SIAB events.
Martin enjoys spending time with my family and friends. That includes attending his grandchildren’s games and competitions. His family still carries on the tradition of the Feast of the Seven Fishes. He loves the celebration with family and friends while making Italian treats for friends and work associates. Martin’s passion is collecting coins and other memorabilia.
He is also looking forward to seeing everyone at the Italian Festival and the Linguini and Crab Feast. … See MoreSee Less

Salute-Tutti
Today is National Donut Day and no one can beat a good homemade Zeppole like Nonna used to make.
Make sure to pay homage to your Italian roots and find a good Zeppole. "They are made from pate choux dough, the same one used for cream puffs and eclairs, made from cooking water/milk with butter and flour and then beating in eggs. The dough is then fried. The little balls cook up golden, crisp and really tender."
That is different from their donut counterpart; however, just as tasty!
We bet you’ll be able to find some at The Maryland Italian Festival !
