The St. Lucy Society held the 95th Feast in honor of Santa Lucia, St. Lucy, Vergine e’ Martire – Protectress of Eyesight. The Monday night St. Lucy’s Feast follows the big weekend St. Anthony’s Feast with a solemn procession by society members through the neighborhood streets with marching bands, flower girls and color guard. At the end of the night, a charity raffle was pulled before the final solemn procession back to the chapel. Enjoy paging through the photo gallery from the day and evening celebration.
