The
weather was hot and humid but large crowds, busy food booths, a
welcoming spirit, tired smiles, and that wonderful sense
of accomplishment mark another very successful Ox Roast Fair.
Once again the grounds of the parish spilled over
with tremendous crowds with nearly all of the
food booths selling out before the close on Sunday.
The fun & entertainment were delightful and the food was delicious,
as usual, as folks from the surrounding area and even out of state
visitors enjoyed the hospitality of the Parish Community of St.
Joseph.
Thank you to everyone who came out & supported, volunteered,
promoted, donated and worked this year's great event.
Despite Mother Nature's fury on the Monday after the fair,
it was another great success!
Held the third full weekend of July,
the Ox Roast Fair has become a tradition
in the Mantua area & surrounding communities.
