News:

Our Festival this year was a huge success. We advertised in the papers, on cable TV and on WLAD radio. We had 100 signs about town.

We add new vendors for massage and for jewelry. We sold 100 T-Shirts on Saturday night. We will have more vendors next year.

Our revenues were about $115,000 including the car with a total profit of about $45,000. We will use the funds for capital improvements.

We have so many people to thank for our success. It was truly a team effort in order to pull this together.
John Benedetto and Roberto Bongo thank all of you for your support.

When you work together for a common goal, you can win.

Bruno Tropeano, President

We want to thank all of the sponsors who bought Sponsor Signs for the Festival. We had a net profit of $4,000 from the sponsors of the signs.
