The St. Anthony Societyon Endicott Street hosted their annual Neighbors Night BBQ on Thursday night. A large team of society cooks and servers fed over 100 residents that setup tables on the street. It’s an election year, so there was plenty of hand grabbing, political talk and an impromptu visit from outgoing Mayor Thomas M. Menino. A special performance was also given by the kids from the Nazzaro Center Band. Thursday was the time for neighbors to gather, catch up and prepare for the feast and the public crowds.
