Lovers of garlic, great local foods and good times will want to mark Sun, July 19th on their calendar!
The Sons of Italy and DaytonMostMetro.com are partnering to bring a day full of family friendly fun featuring fantastic foods and marvelous music by The Menu’s, Dayton’s favorite party band. The event will take place on the grounds on Bella Villa Hall at 2625 County Line Road in Kettering from noon until 8:30pm.
Food offerings will be required to contain garlic and expect to see some off the wall items! And what’s a festival without some contests, run by The Big Ragu and his Food Adventure crew, like the garlic peeling contest, a garlic eating challenge and more. You’ll even be able to sit in on some cooking lessons, featuring what else- garlic! Sunday is also the final day of the Bocce Classic, and after the tournament their will be open lanes for you to try your hand at this classic Italian lawn bowling game.
Vendor sign ups are now in process and a list of participating eateries will be available soon on the GarlicFest event page. Sign up there for more info. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Sons of Italy student scholarship fund.
