Each Friday of Lent, the St. Mary Banquet Hall buzzes with excitement as preparations begin to open the doors for the weekly Fish Fry event. Lines begin to form before 4:30 pm and continue on steadily until 7 pm. In fact, last week over 600 people were served!
These weekly events help benefit students in need at St. Mary School and bring together families from the school and parish. Last week, diners were treated to the musical talents of Joey Tomsick on the accordion, enticing kids to get up join in the Chicken Dance and adults joining in a sing-a-long of Roll Out the Barrel.
Each week, various volunteers and groups come together to help make the dinner possible. Members of the public school religion group and St. Mary School Beacon of Light worked the room to the ensure diners were served well and had all they needed. Washing dishes, packing meals and waiting tables kept the students hopping all night long.
The St. Mary Fish Fry is a great place to come and spend time within your community, getting to know your neighbors, Catholic or not. Doors open at 4:30 pm and food is served until 7 pm. Please visit our school website for full menu and pricing.
