North End Family Pride Day had perfect weather for the festivities on Sunday at Langone Park on Commercial Street. The Johnny Paolo Memorial Bocce Tournament was held as was the 23rd LaFesta Baseball Exchange game. Keeping everyone entertained were live performances from Crosstown and Street Magic. As always, the Nazzaro Center Kids Talent Show was a big hit. Many community organizations put on exhibits and community activities all day. In memory of Robert “Bobby D” Decristoforo, the event was organized by North End Against Drugs, along with the Nazzaro Center, North End Athletic Association and sponsored by NStar among many others (see poster).
