Hello,

I just moved here from the Bay Area to attend U.C Davis, I am ilocano, ilocos Sur, My dad was one of the first filipinos that came out here to Sacramento CA. He has since passed away but thought you may want some of his information for the Cultural Center. He was the first Fiipino Aviator in Sacramento, I have documentation that dates back to the 1950′s Show casing his Airplane flying in Sacramento showing the American and filipino flag for the Filipino Independence day event I think it was a Common Wealth club. His name is Felix Sandi Savella. Also would like to become a member please contact me so that i may come and visit.
