Westwood In A Minute: St. Mark's Greek Fest

On Saturday, September 14 and Sunday, September 15, the annual St. Mark's Greek Fest returned to the church grounds at Nahatan Street in Westwood, in what appeared to be an expanded event compared to past years. 

The crowd seemed bigger than ever on Saturday evening, as community members lined up to order favorite Greek foods at the dinner hour.

The tent housing the largest part of the event space for dining, serving, and dancing seemed taller and more spacious than in past years, and the food prep stations seemed to also have increased in number. 

The Westwood Police officer directing foot traffic from one side of Nahatan Street to another remarked, "Have you ever seen crowds like this?"
