Dozens of people sang and danced while holding hands under a tent adorned with colorful banners as the Greek Orthodox Panaghia Church in Island Park hosted its annual Greek Food and Music Festival.

The festival ran from Aug. 22 to 25 from noon to 10 p.m. each day, providing guests of all ages with a chance to play games, participate in raffles, browse goods at a flea market and enjoy music, dancing and rides.

The carnival-like atmosphere included games like darts and fishing, where attendees could vie for various prizes.

Rides included a Ferris wheel and others. VIVO Entertainment provided the music and Lou Barone served as the DJ.
