'Il Diavolo' stops by the Italian Festival

Italian Festival

Red square See 44 photos of the event and the people there

Every dog has its day, even one dressed as a little devil, and on Sunday afternoon a parade of costumed pooches opened the fourth annual Mangia! Mangia! Italian Festival at Lake Clementia Park. Then it was on to all the people activities -- wine tasting, Bada Bada Bingo, a spaghetti sauce cook-off, a limoncello contest, a bocce ball tournament and more -- topped off by an al fresco dinner. In addition to celebrating the Italian lifestyle, the festival benefits St. Vincent DePaul Catholic Church, Loaves and Fishes and the Sacramento Life Center.  Don't miss the gallery with dozens of photos of the fun.
