Good morning, Scranton.
🏘️ Community
The third annual La Festa Italiana Car Show took place on Washington Avenue in Scranton last Saturday during the Labor Day weekend festival in Lackawanna County — the free event featured imported, European and Italian sports cars along with Vespas, motorcycles and vintage rides, and awards were given for first, second and third place.
🎭 Culture
On the third day of La Festa Italiana, a Mass in Italian was held Sunday morning at Saint Peter’s Cathedral in downtown Scranton and the Italian colony of Saint Lucy assisted with the service—later carrying a statue of Saint Lucy to Heritage Piazza on Spruce Street.
🏈 Sports
Runners celebrated NEPA's third Wyoming Valley Run as they covered 10 miles from Pittston to Wilkes-Barre, finishing at Public Square.
The event, presented by Allied Services partnering with AllOne Charities, supported five local charities and has donated $20,000 to nonprofits since 2023.
