For the first time in more than a year, First Saturday is returning to Gadsden.
The Carver Community Revitalization Committee on May 1 will host First Saturday for the first time since November 2019; the event did not take place in 2020 because of the coronavirus pandemic.
It will be held at Carver Square, located at 1030 Tuscaloosa Ave. The event will begin at 5 p.m. and run until 10 p.m., and is free to the public.
According to Larry Avery, president of the Carver Community Revitalization Committee, the return of First Saturday will feature a concert by R&B vocalist Kendra DeAngelo, a member of Xoul N-Finity, and his band. Local artists and poets are invited, and local vendors will have spaces to set up at the event. There also will be a car show.

The former Enfield Dairy Bar, previously known as Cimino s, on South Rd. in Enfield. (Pam (Cimino) Schweitzer)
ENFIELD, CT After trying for a very long time, I finally acquired a photo of one of my favorite places to go in Enfield during the 1970s: Enfield Dairy Bar on South Road. Thank you to Pam (Cimino) Schweitzer for sending us the picture of her father s business, which featured the best ice cream and sandwiches in town (and anyone who has seen my physique knows I know a lot about dining spots in town).
Brothers Joseph and John Cimino and their cousin Francis Cimino started the restaurant at 182 South Road in 1965; in fact, veteran residents of Enfield still refer to it as Cimino s.
