North Vancouver First Annual Viva North Shore Festa Italiana

July 15, 2007

By Catherine "Cat" Barr

The North Shore Outlook is delivered to over 60,000 homes in Canada's wealthiest communities, North Vancouver and West Vancouver, every Thursday - over 60,000 issues in print.

 

It was Benvenuti to friends and families last weekend at North Vancouver's Mahon Park where the first annual Viva North Shore Festa Italiana celebration took place. There was lots of food and live entertainment on hand as well as displays and prizes, and one lucky ticket holder even walked away with a weekend rental of a very expensive Maserati automobile. Ciao bella!

Vancouver's best events and celebrity functions are all archived here. Vancouver pubs, clubs, nightclubs, gala events and fundraisers are included. Thanks for viewing.

Due to server capacity, you will not be able to access or click through to the larger photographs. With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would quickly exceed the amount of memory needed.

If you would like to receive a copy of a photograph, then please send an email and enclose the details of the event, the date, the name, the photo number and the names of the people in the photograph. Also, for security reasons, I prefer not to email copies of pictures to anyone other than the people who are actually in the photo. Thanks.
