Subscriber only The Southern Downs will pay tribute to its Italian heritage next week as Italian Consul Mr Salvatore Napolitano visits local businesses and more. Mr Napolitano will talk to Granite Belt tourism operators and producers during his three-day tour as well as review the Italian Enrichment Program at the Stanthorpe State High School and meet with industry representatives such as Chambers of Commerce. Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi said it was an honour to host Mr Napolitano and promote the rich Italian culture that defines the Southern Downs. Our Italian heritage has stitched a number of patches into the tapestry of the Granite Belt and broader Southern Downs region and it is a privilege to showcase the region s diversity and culture to the Consul and his travelling dignitaries, Mayor Pennisi said.
