Avon's local Italian club is hosting its annual celebration starting Friday that honos all things Italian.
Prince Thomas of Savoy (PTS) — the Italian-American club located in Avon — will host its second annual “town-wide” Italian festival called "La Festa Italiana."
This two-day event is at the club’s facilities at 32 Old Farms Rd. Avon.
The first day is Friday, Oct. 7, from 4 to 10 p.m. and the second day is Saturday, Oct. 8, from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
“We would like to invite everyone to help celebrate our Italian heritage, the 70th anniversary of the women’s auxiliary and the 90th anniversary of the club’s building,” said Deb Brasfield, women’s auxiliary president.
This family-friendly event will feature a taste of Italy with locally made Italian foods, cultural demonstrations, community organizations, entertainment, children’s activities, games (including bocce), and tours of the magnificent clubhouse with its original frescos of various regions of Italy.
Food booths will include fried dough, cannoli, Italian cookies, Italian coffee/cappuccino, raw bar, meatball grinders, PTS Italian dipping oil, soup and Italian ice. Read More...
