Fifth Annual Italian American Feast - Clark

The Clark chapter of UNICO proudly announces the fifth Annual Italian American Feast to be held this fall in Clark. The event will be held for three days during the Columbus
Day weekend, Friday, October 7, 6:00pm - 11:00pm - Saturday, October, 8th, 1:00pm - 11:00pm - Sunday, October 9th, 1:00pm - 8:00pm in the parking lot on the recreation side of the municipal building and also in front of the tennis courts.

The feast will consist of many of your favorite Italian foods including sausage, pizza, zeppole, eggplant, calzone, pastas, seafood and much more.  We will also have beer and wine.  There will be game trailers for everyone to take a chance to win prizes, plus a money wheel, 50/50, and an LCD Flat Screen TV raffle.

Children will be entertained by taking a spin on various rides, having their face painted or eating cotton candy, popcorn, and ice cream. Clark residents will be entertained by Brother John Brown, live band on Friday night, Sounds of the Street doo-wop band on Saturday night and an Italian Singer on Sunday.  Various crafters and retailers will also be on hand for people to stroll along and shop.

Save the date as we extend an invitation to join in on this wonderful fall festival.  If you would like to volunteer to help with the feast or partake in the festivities, please feel free to call Ralph Bernardo, Clark Chapter President at 908-337-7773.

For those of you not familiar with UNICO, we are the largest Italian American Service Club in the US, non profit and non sectarian.  The UNICO Clark chapter will be running the feast. The proceeds raised from last years feast enabled us to donate over $23,000 to academic and sport scholarship awards to our high school students, underprivileged and handicap children, charities, community and civic activities just to name a few.

We are excited and proud to bring the event to the township of Clark again this year and are anticipating and even larger turnout and great experience for all residents. Mark your calendars and bring your appetite as a guaranteed fun time will be had by all!
