Police focus on illicit parties

RICHARD W. DIONNE JR.

A group of people broke into this Fireside Drive home after the family left for vacation. The intrudersused the location to party. Police have iden-

tified a couple of suspects in the case. Teens allegedly party in home after family leaves for vacation

Police looking for

more information, possible suspectsBY JOSH BICKFORD jbickford@eastbaynewspapers.com

A Fireside Drive family discov-

ered a disturbing scene when they returned home from vaca- tion on Sunday night, July 28.

The inside of their home was a

mess - the result of some hard- partying individuals who used the Hampden Meadows house as a party location while the home- owners were out of town. Empty alcohol bottles littered the home'sbasement.

Barrington Police Chief John

LaCross said detectives believe

local teenagers broke into the house through a sliding glass door at the rear of the residence.

Once inside, the intruders made a

mess, leaving items strewn about the kitchen and throughout other rooms.

He said the individuals had also

draped blankets over the win- dows, apparently in an effort to keep neighbors from seeing any- thing taking place. "We think this might be related to some friends" of the home- owners' son "who knew the fami-ly was away," said the chief. "The family has a teenage son."

Police have

reportedly identified a couple of indi- viduals who may have been involved in the incident and are trying to expand the list of suspects.

They are asking

anyone with more information to call the confidential police tip line at 437-3933. Chief LaCross said cash had been reported stolen from the home, although the investigation is ongoing. "Anyone who did enter the house and is willing to cooperate, there's consideration given," the chief said. "They will still be held responsible and may have to pay restitution for the cleanup, but for anyone who comes forward, there's consideration given."Not the first time

Italian feast dates

back decades

BY MANUEL C.

"MANNY" CORREIRA

Special to The Times

Come one, come all!

That's the developing theme of

members of the Holy Angels

Church Summer Festival Com-

mittee, who invite all parish- ioners and friends to the annual

Feast of the Assumption celebra-

tion on the grounds of Holy

Angels Church on Maple Avenue.

The 2013 Summer Festival

begins with a kickoff on Thurs- day, Aug. 15, at 6 p.m. with a steak dinner (pre-paid tickets only at $20 each). Call 245-4707 or 245-7743 for tickets and more information. Tickets will be sold in advance following Masses; they will not be sold at the door.

The Feast of the Assumptionhas been going on in Barringtonfor generations and this latestedition promises to be as enjoy-able and entertaining as past fes-tivals.

On Friday and Saturday night,

Aug. 16 and 17, starting at 6 p.m.,

the festival fun begins under the big tent on church grounds. There will be lots of great foods, games, raffles, a baked goods table, musi- cal entertainment and children's games. Also, at one end corner of the tent will be a white elephant sale of many treasures and there will be an array of books, CDs, tapes, household items and lots more. Call Luigi at 245-5911 for a $50 big ticket raffle.

The Feast Mass will be held Sun-

day, Aug. 18, at 10:30 a.m., at Holy

Angels Church. This will be fol-

lowed by an outdoor procession (weather permitting). Those par- ticipating in the procession will return to the church for benedic- tion, which will conclude all activ- ities.

People came from Boston

"We started this festival over 20 years ago," said festival committee

Chairwoman Barbara St. Angelo.

"Years ago, the festival was much larger and we had a huge carnival and the procession was very large.

People would come down from

Boston to process."

Ms. St. Angelo, who credits her

entire committee for their unselfish dedication and contri- butions toward the success of the festival, remembers when the

Feast of the Assumption was as

big as any summertime event in town. "As a kid, I always looked for- ward to the festival and the fire- works at Chianese Field," she recalled. "At that time, it was a week-long event and many fami-lies would get together on theweekend and family members would travel from all over to attend cookouts. We would have several priests attend on Sunday, and my mom, who was the cook at the rectory, would provide many meals for them."

According to archival informa-

tion, Holy Angels Church has a fascinating history. In the 1880s, there was a severe economic depression in Italy and large num- bers of Italians migrated to the

United States. A significant num-

ber came to Barrington to work in the brickyard and they settled near the brickyard along Maple

Avenue.

In the early 1900s, the Italian

population was large enough to merit its own church and, in 1913,

Holy Angels Roman Catholic

Church was founded on Maple

Avenue. The land for the church

was donated by the brick compa- ny in hopes that parishioners would purchase house lots near the church, which they did.

The Italian populace in town

celebrated the Feast of the

Assumption with much reverence

and devotion. Holy Angels Church flourished under the leadership of several dynamic pastors.

Publicity Chairwoman Beverly

Romano, like Ms. St. Angelo, has

been involved in this celebration for many years. She agrees that the time and effort each commit- tee member puts into the event are the keys to the summer festi- val's success. "Each year many dedicated parishioners team up for a suc- cessful weekend and great com- munity spirit," she said.

Everyone has their fingers

crossed that good weather will prevail in order to ensure another great turnout.
