Our annual St. Joseph Table was held on Sunday, March 15th. Around 200 people came to enjoy the meal and celebrate. What a great turn out. All proceeds were donated to “Kids Fight Cancer as well as the Italian Language Program at Casa Italia/Italian Culture Center. Thank you so much to Joe Russo and his committee for all the great efforts you put into this event ever year. A special thank you to all the volunteers who helped out on that busy day.
