St. Rocco's!

Hello everyone!!!

If you are anywhere in the Cleveland area, you have probably heard the roar of the Blue Angels as they practice for the Air Show this weekend.

You know what that means, right?

Yes! It's also time for St. Rocco's annual festival! :)

We will be performing Saturday and Sunday this Labor Day weekend. Evenings starting at 7 pm, and Sunday afternoon at 1 for the procession. Please arrive by 6:30 for the evening performances, and 12:30 for the procession, so we can hand out music.

Also of note, City Officials will be at St. Rocco's Sunday afternoon to dedicate a portion of Fulton Road to the memory of Salvatore Calandra (known to most of us in the band simply as "The Judge"), who passed away on August 1st.

Yes, I know, I have pictures of him marching away-I was playing when I took these-there was a short break in the music which allowed me to get the shot, but unfortunately, he was already walking past!


Hope to see you at St. Rocco's this weekend!!
