August, 10, 2007 - The St. Rita Family Festival in Racine is ready to show why it's been voted Racine's Number One Church festival.
This year's event takes place Friday, Saturday and Sunday, August 17th through the 19th , at the beautiful parish grounds at 4339 Douglas Avenue on Racine's North side.
Ride specials for the kids, games of chance for the adults, food and top flight entertainment will make this years festival another one to remember.
