    RACINE - Armenian Fest will be held from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday,
    Aug. 5, at Festival Park, 5 Fifth St. The festival, known as the
    largest Armenian Festival in the Midwest, is sponsored by St. Mesrob
    Armenian Apostolic Church.

    At 10 a.m. before the festival begins, the Divine Liturgy of the
    Armenian Church will be offered in the Green Room of Festival Hall.

    There will be Armenian music all day, outside under the big tent by
    the Mideast Beat for folk dancing.

    Armenian food that will be available include shish kebob dinners, rice
    pilaf, sarma, lahmajoon and cheese boeregs, plus numerous Armenian
    pastries and breads.

    A silent auction will be held from noon to 5 p.m. in Festival Hall.

    There will also be a cultural booth with books and gifts for sale and
    an Armenian marketplace. A dunk tank, golf putting and various games
    and activities will be available for children. A raffle drawing will
    be held at 7 p.m. Prizes are: Grand prize, $1,000; second place $300;
    third $200, and fourth, $100.

    There is no admission fee to the festival, however, a freewill offering
    will be accepted. Proceeds from donations will go to the Northside
    Food Pantry and to Armenian orphanages.
