The 88th Saint Joseph’s Feast Grand Procession was held on Sunday, July 28th for seven hours through the streets of the North End. Starting off the procession, a representative of the Mayor’s office in Riesi, Sicily read a special proclamation for the feast.
The photo gallery below shows photos from the Feast along with hours from the Grand Procession, stopping at many North End businesses to pick up ribbons while marching through the streets. Accompanying Societa San Giuseppe di Riesi (Saint Joseph Society of Riesi Sicily) were the North End Marching Band and the Northeast Italian-American Band.
