St. Bart's continues spaghetti supper tradition

NORWICH – St. Bartholomew’s Catholic Church will resurrect a time-honored tradition in the Norwich community starting tonight – the spaghetti supper. According to committee member Mary Coe, this was once an annual event, but it has not occurred in the last few years.
A dozen or more parishioners busied themselves in the parish center kitchen earlier this week. They were hard at work making meatballs for the spaghetti dinner. They made over 1,600 meatballs on Tuesday, and they were far from done.
The dinner will be held at 4:30 and 7 p.m. Thursday and Friday at the St. Bart’s parish center on East Main Street. The cost of admission is $7 for adults over 12, $5 for children ages 5 to 12, and kids under five eat for free.
A committee made up of six people, including Coe, Bill Callahan, Priscilla DiStefano, Lil Curnalia, George Zieno and Father Douglas Cunningham, planned the event. The food will be made by volunteer parishioners. Nan Magistro aided the committee by helping to coordinate the workers. The dinner will be co-sponsored by the 211th Chapter of the Knights of Columbus.
“The tradition was started by Monsignor Guy Festa about 30 years ago,” Coe said. “We always used to have a lot of people.” Coe hopes the event is a success again this year. All money raised will benefit the church.
