Inside the quiet halls of Watertown’s Immaculate Heart Central School, preparations are underway for the return of St. Anthony’s once-annual Mount Carmel Feast. Now that it’s back from a two-year hiatus, people are looking forward to getting their hands on some much-missed cuisine and celebrating Italian Heritage.

“Once you get on the ground and start tasting the fried dough, sausage, and everything, you’ll be glad you came and won’t regret it. It’s a good time,” said Frank Gorri. Gorri is a parishioner at St. Anthony’s Church and the man behind the meats at the Mount Carmel Feast. He specializes in sausage, providing hundreds of pounds to the venue each year.
