The organizers of the popular fair at St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church on Levittown Parkway in Tullytown say the family-friendly event will open at 6 p.m. Friday night and continue until July 10.
Rev. Michael DiIorio told LevittownNow.com in an interview outside the church Friday that the event shouldn’t be overshadowed by the Thursday night stabbing that left three hurt and multiple people assaulted. He said the violent crime happened outside fair grounds and the fair remained safe.
