Our annual Chicken Dinner Festival, the major fundraiser of our parish, began in 1959. Since then, thousands of delicious chicken dinners have been enjoyed by many during the weekend’s festivities. The festival is held on the last Saturday and Sunday of June. All parishioners are invited to be a part of the Festival Planning Committee which begins meeting in January of each year. To join contact Lenny Barcikowski or Pat Johnston.
The Annual Chicken Dinner Festival coincides with Garrettsville's Summerfest Celebration. For more information about the Summerfest, visit garrettsvillesummerfest.com.
CHICKEN DINNER FESTIVAL NEEDS YOU!
St. Ambrose is in need of help in several key positions for the Chicken Dinner Festival. Duties include working casino games, selling tickets during the festival, helping work Bingo, bussing tables, and serving food. Even if you can help for as little as two hours per day, it would be a HUGE HELP. Please call Pat Johnston (330-281-9514) or Len Barcikoski (440-666-0722) for more details.
