The 27th Annual North End Family Pride Day was a big success on Saturday, September 17th. Originally scheduled in August, the fun festival had to be postponed due to rain. Dozens of local families came out for a terrific day of performances and activities. On stage were Crosstown, Street Magic, NEMPAC students and DJ Stevie. There was a free BBQ with face painting, magic, petting zoo, balloon making, arts & crafts, the RCN Ice Cream truck and tables by Boston Public Market, NEW Health, Museum of Science and the MWRA.
