History / History of a club/society | | Italian term or phrase: si accende questo strumento di comunicazione | This is part of a website of a social club in Italy. The introduction is by the President of the Club which is then followed by a brief account of the background to the Club. This is in the first part. The President wants to address not just his members but also other reciprocal clubs and affiliated organizations too, using the means of the internet to do this.
The whole sentence reads: Nel frattempo da oggi si accende questo strumento di comunicazione per i nostri affiliati e per tutti coloro che vorranno saperne un po' di più sulla nostra storia.
Many thanks for any suggestions. |
