Eat, Drink And Dance! St. Demetrios Food Festival

Upper Darby, PA – Volunteers make all the difference. Like a well-oiled machine, St. Demetrios powered through the weekend, moving food, drinks, and dancing without a hitch. The food was tasty, homemade, freshly served, and plentiful—pretty much sums it up. With a warm and friendly volunteer staff of church members, St. Demetrios enjoyed a fun-filled weekend hosting this 2-day event.

Plenty of parking made it easy to visit this historically Greek neighborhood on Marshall Road (near the Cobbs Creek Parkway), and dancing by the GOYA and church dance groups kept everyone’s eyes focused while bellies were being filled.

For the second year in a row, St. Demetrios and its volunteers kept its guests laughing and grinning from ear to ear. Even between performances, while things were quiet inside the church, singing in the kitchen and under the tent could be heard. At one point, I peeked my head into a cooking area under a tent and saw the volunteer chefs singing and dancing.

Yes, we Greeks celebrate anytime. OPA!
