Isaac Heating and Air Conditioning presents:

St. Rita’s 53rd Annual Fiesta
Friday, June 1 and Saturday, June 2

It can't happen without YOU!

The 53rd annual St. Rita's Fiesta is approaching quickly and it promises to be another crowd pleaser benefiting those most in need. Once again, proceeds from the two day festival will help St. Clement of Rome, our sister parish near New Orleans still struggling to recover from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. 

Our Annual Fiesta features a wide range of activities and games for children and adults, and, as always, a variety of tantalizing food. There is also the plant sale, the book sale, the bake sale and the auction.

Great musical entertainment ~  Atlas kicks off our entertainment on Friday evening.  Atlas is a nine-member soul/r&b/funk band based in Rochester. Together for 25 years they are the #1 Party Band in New York State having performed at corporate parties, weddings, festivals, and nightclubs.  On Saturday evening, It’s Your Party (featuring our parish’s own Katie Germano and Danielle Albano) opens the entertainment followed by the ever popular and crown favorite Skycoasters!

RAFFLE:   Grand Prize $10,000 !!!!!!
Tickets will be available the beginning of May.

Fiesta Auction update  ~  we need your time and treasures!  
Please help us to make this year's auction the BEST EVER!  We are looking for items that can be donated for our 2nd annual LIVE auction plus items for the silent auction.  Last year our parishioners and local business were very generous with their donations.  We already have some new and exciting plans for the silent auction that will sure to be a lot of fun for all!  If you would also like to help with the auction, please let us know.  Please contact Gary or Virginia Nicastro at 872-5564 or Linda Kehoe at 872-2087 for more information about donations or volunteering.

Fiesta Plant Sale ~  
We are looking forward to another successful plant sale with all your generous donations from your gardens.   Last year the selection was beyond belief with the many assortments of plants, bushes, trees, bulbs, perennials, groundcovers and houseplants donated by parishioners.  We are preparing for the Fiesta Plant sale.  When you are digging and dividing your plants and shrubs for the Fiesta Plant sale please mark their names and flower colors with each pot.  Last year’s success was built on our customers being able to find the plant they wanted and knowing the flower color.  We are willing to divide and dig your donated plants. We are looking for different varieties of Hostas, flowering shrubs and perennials, and any other plant you would like to donate. We are still in need of containers. Please call Carol Van Atta, 671-7832, to schedule a dig time.  Or for more information, call Joyce Hollander, 671-3281.  Volunteers are needed to set up and work the booth.

Fiesta Book Sale ~
Once again, it's time to dust off your bookshelves and donate your used books, videos, DVD's and CD's to annual Fiesta Book Sale. Thanks for your great response in the past. A collection box will be placed in the narthex May 1st. For pick-up call Mary or Don at 671-2722.

The Fiesta always needs sponsors and volunteers !
To volunteer in any way, call either of our Fiesta Chairmen - Tom Cali, 671-0428 or Ed Ritzel, 787-1937. 
Setting Up/Tearing Down – A little manual labor is good for you. Volunteers are needed for setting up and tearing down the Fiesta.  Call Tony Mendicino, 216-9648.  For sponsorship information, contact Steve Gaglio, 670-9515.

Volunteering IS good for the soul!
