The 22nd annual St. Theresa Feast offered Bronxites five fun-filled days of local entertainment from Wednesday, June 20 to Sunday, June 24 in Pelham Bay. The time honored neighborhood tradition featured carnival rides, game stations, music, delicious food and raffle prizes. Its final day featured the procession through the streets with the statue of St. Theresa, the feast’s namesake, while a traditional Italian Procession Band performed.
Mason Hernandez was happy to have a colorful ice cream cone.
