That was just a small portion of the food ordered for the Scotch Plains/UNICO Labor Day Festival when if first started in 1974. Members of UNICO and the parish community literally spent weeks preparing various Italian dishes for the festivial. While the food for the feast is no longer prepared by the community and  chopped meat no longer costs 98 cents a pound, the festival has remained a tradition in Scotch Plains for 50 years.


Activities include rides, games and there will also be a wonderful  selection of food and drinks such as mouth-watering sausage sandwiches,  zeppole, mussels, calzones, pizza, pasta and pastries. Our super 50/50 is drawn on Monday night, we have had some drawings exceed $76,000!


One of the many highlights of the weekend is a mass celebrated in  Italian, which takes place on Saturday at 5:00 PM, following by a  procession to honor the patron saint of Montazzoli, Italy, Saint Nicola  di Bari. The procession is accompanied by Italian music.

 Proceeds from the feast benefit three organizations:

  • St. Bartholomew the Apostle Church
  • The St. Bartholomew Academy
  • The charitable causes of the Scotch Plains-Fanwood Chapter of UNICO
