Getting to know The Hill and the game of Bocce ball

The Hill, a 50-square-block area in South St. Louis, is the city’s Italian neighborhood. On Sunday, September 25, 2011, the St. Ambrose school cafeteria hosted a ravioli dinner from noon to 6 p.m. to benefit the Sick and Elderly Program, a non-profit volunteer organization providing hospital equipment and medical supplies free of charge to residents of the Hill. Some 1,200 people attended the ravioli/roast beef/Italian bread/salad/dessert dinner. See Dan Tham’s video to view Joe DeGregorio, a Hill historian and tour guide, introduce several Hill residents.
