St Stanislaus Festival
St. Stanislaus Summer Festival
Back in 1961, the parishioners of St. Stanislaus took a break from an escalating Cold War,
the construction of the Berlin Wall, and the continuing war in Vietnam
to inaugurate the annual St. Stanislaus Summer Festival.
Now, warm nights, great music, and plenty of snacks and beverages are the perfect accompaniments
for this annual summer event. Ours is the most continuous carnival/festival in the area.

There is no better time to express appreciation than during the holiday season. In many homes, there is an empty seat for one serving or making the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We hope you will join us to show our veterans we are thankful for them and will always be remembered.
