Guest Speaker
Tom Pomposello aka: T-Bone told us about Yorktown’s San Gennaro Festival. Tom is very active in community affairs and the planning committee for the Festival. In 2016, our own Tony was the Grand Marshal. Good job, Tony! As many as possible local businesses, organizations, bands, etc were invited to participate and the four day event was very successful. The goal is to make it better every year. Local charitable organizations are the beneficiaries of monies made and the Festival Committee works closely with the New York Diocese and local churches. They are negotiating for a five day event this year. If you want good Italian food and lots of fun, this is a festival to attend. More information s forthcoming! Thank you, Tom, for your presentation and good luck.
