St. Charles Homecoming

The 120th St. Charles Homecoming, which got its start as an annual celebration to bring together parishioners and community members in the Genoa area, will serve food from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday, July 2nd, at the church, 701 Walnut St., Genoa, Wis. Each meal includes grilled chicken and sides from Rooster Andy’s, as well as a serving of homemade risotto, which is a cheesy rice delicacy passed down through generations of Italian immigrants who settled in the area. The event got its start as an annual celebration on Independence Day, but is now held the first Sunday in July. Many highlights of past Homecoming celebrations will be featured including food, raffles, and a number of games for kids. Entry is free and open to the public. Meals cost $15 each; or $6 for a smaller hot dog plate.
