GREEK FESTIVAL By the Bay… a Success!
The St. Demetrios Greek Festival partnered up with the Perth Amboy Waterfront Arts Festival on Saturday, May 27th for a day full of great food, festivities and fun.
Festival attendees were treated to amazing Greek food, Greek wine, our very own beer garden plus booths from local artists and community organizations and five bands taking stage throughout the day.
Perth Amboy Mayor Wilda Diaz, Congressman Frank Pallone, Assembly candidate Yvonne Lopez and candidate for Governor Phil Murphy dropped by to shake hands and enjoy and the festivities.
It was a wonderful success teaming the City Arts and Church Festivals. THANK YOU MAYOR DIAZ AND PERTH AMBOY.

My Dear Brothers and Sister of St. Demetrios,
On Saturday May 27th, we are hosting a one day festival to meet our current expenses of a new roof and crumbling brick repairs. These are items NOT in our budget but the result of years of wear and tear and neglect. These are necessary and NOT cosmetic repairs. While many have given generously to help defray these cost, not all have or are able.
However, all are able to help with the ONE DAY FESTIVAL we are hosting on MAY 27th. We need you, your family members and relatives to come help us, ON this ONE day. The proceeds of this festival keep our church open and in good repair.
This year we are partnering with the City of Perth Amboy for a joint day of Perth Amboy Art show and LIVE 5 HOUR MULTIPLE band performances right in front of our church. We expect record crowds. We may have more people on our property than ever before. YOUR HELP IS CRITICALLY NEED TO SERVICE THE LARGER THAN EXPECTED CROWDS.
Parking in the lot will be limited ONLY TO WORKERS WHO HAVE PREREGISTERED WITH THE CHURCH OFFICE TO WORK THAT DAY. We need people for many different job and hours so please call the church and register your help today.
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE THIS THE MOST SUCCESSFULLY FINANCIAL FESTIVAL EVER.
