Celebrated around the world on Christmas Eve, the Feast of Seven Fishes is known as La Vigilia, Italian for “The Vigil” in wait of the midnight Christmas birth.
A Southern Italian tradition, the menu consists of fish and pasta with a fasting from meat for the Roman Catholic holiday.
The numerology represents the seven sacraments and seven days of creation.
Chef Piombo offers his interpretation of this celebrated meal albeit one week early, putting history and tradition together on one table with his favorite seven fishes.
Reverend Mark Drinkall of the Emanuel Evangelical Church will conduct a blessing of the skis and snowboards.
Starting at 11am, there will be a group prayer, followed by Reverend Mark Drinkall’s service, then the blessing.
After the Blessing of the Skis/Boards is complete, we will be holding a contest for the Oldest Pair of Skis and Snowboard, Youngest Skier or Boarder & the Oldest Skier or Boarder.
