An Italian festival, with fun, games and -- you bet -- food wil be held at Lake Clementia Sunday, Oct. 4, to open Italian-American Heritage Month.  It kicks off at 1 p.m., and events include a bocce ball tournament, a limoncello tasting, quick sauce and grape-stomping challenges and more.

There will be Italian music and wine and food vendors.  The day concludes with a spaghetti dinner.  Donations are $20 per person and all proceeds benefit St. Vincent De Paul Catholic Church and its own outreach programs.
