collaborating with Sicily's IPLNU could immediately affect the whole territory.
This agreement's purpose reflects the will to form a network able to promote
the whole area".Antonino La Spina, President of the Sicilian Pro Loco Regional
Committee, praises the Park's initiative that can play a significant role by
involving the towns between 2 provinces, namely Catania and Messina: on this
subject he addresses the mayors in order to make some areas available for the
tourist information service.
