The festival will open on Friday, Aug. 1 with rides for the kids and children’s
games, featuring some new and exciting ones, plus the traditional, cabbage and
noodles, pierogies, roast beef sandwiches, Italian sausage sandwiches
and much more. The food booths will be open throughout the festival.
On Saturday, Aug. 2, the traditional Spaghetti Dinner will be served in the
school gym, and on Sunday, Aug. 3, the tantalizing aroma of roasted chicken and
corn will fill the air. An important part of the festival also will occur on Sunday,
when the outdoor Mass will be celebrated in the pavilion at 12 noon,
weather permitting. This Mass has grown into a wonderful event each year.
The Grand Prize drawing this year is a chance to win either a 2008 Ford Taurus
or $15,000 cash. This is the second year a cash alternative is being offered, thanks
in part to Mike Bass Ford. Tickets are the same price as last year: $1 each, or six
for $5. The car will be raffled off on Sunday at 8 p.m. Tickets are available at the Parish
Center, and will be sold at the festival the entire weekend. Again this year, there will be a
drawing for a 37-inch flat screen LCD HDTV, an iPod Nano and other prizes. This
drawing is especially attractive to the younger people of the parish, as well as all the
audiophiles out there. This drawing will also take place on Sunday. If you would like to
help with the festival, call Ed Klimczak at 282-9411. Volunteers are always needed and
appreciated. People are needed to help cook, sell food in the kitchen, and to help
set up and clean up before and after the festival.
Entertainment will be provided by Al Battistelli, Ed Klimczak and others during
the weekend.
This is a great time to see old friends and meet some new ones.
See you there!
