Festa 2007 IS OFF TO A GREAT START

The 2007 Festa was off to a great start Friday Stomping grapes to make the wine, fantastic music and "oh the food" should not be missed. It was nice to see so many people having a good time. The evening was highlighted with great music and a full dance floor of couples, families and friends. And that was just the first night. Come back and enjoy much more.
