The St. Boniface Martyr Parish of Sea Cliff held its ninth annual “Feast by the Shore” from May 16-19 at Tappen Beach in Sea Cliff. Guests of all ages enjoyed rides, fair food and carnival-style games at the fun-filled family event.
Each night a new musical group graced the stage to provide live entertainment to crowds of music-goers. Headliners included: Lazy Dog, Chicken Head, Alibi and Frank Ferrara. Thrill seekers took a turn on the exciting rides located right on the beach. And children tested their skills playing carnival games to win prizes.
Foodies feasted under the food tent and enjoyed typical beach bites and Italian fare like sausage and pepper heroes, meatballs and brick oven pizza served straight from the hull of a fire truck.
