Buona Festa!!!!!!!!!!!

In continuation of the week long Italian Patron Saint celebration occurring annually in the small ethnic town of Lowellville, OH, the town continues with a nightly festival followed by our unique "Baby Doll Dance." The Baby Doll dance is yet another custom that cannot be explained unless you see it and not truly understood unless you lived it....

During this week the "place to be" is this festival... there is no where else to be.... family, food, friends, culture and fun!

The men enjoy their morro tournaments and bocce every night.... others can be found in the gambling tents....

This Baby Doll tee can still be ordered by contacting the society through their Facebook page at Ladies Mt. Carmel Society. Message for pricing and sizes.

Each night the festival is ended with the magical Baby Doll dance.... again if you haven't seen it and don't know... it just can't be truly explained. The music cues up and there is a childlike excitement in the air.... The doll dances and the fireworks shoot into the air and every Calabrian in the crowd is shaking their fist at rough year that has just ended!! Buona Festa..... until next year!
