Ladies of the St. Peter Altar Society and young people from our area schools and parishes will be assisting.
The Singing Slovenes have graciously agreed to be our evening's entertainment. Their music is fun, upbeat, and lively, and their enthusiasm is contagious. The Singing Slovenes have just recorded their third CD. As their popularity has grown, we are glad that they have agreed to be with us again this year. Since they are performing gratis, we will be taking up a free-will collection for the group. To learn more about the Singing Slovenes, visit their website at www.singingslovenes.com .
