The Vermont Italian Cultural Association (VICA) will sponsor a presentation "Burlington Before the Mall" on Wednesday, March 6th, at 1:00 p.m. at the Charlotte Senior Center, Ferry Rd., Charlotte.

What was the neighborhood of the Burlington Mall like in the early 1960's before urban renewal had a major impact on that area? Burlington officials saw it as a major step forward but it came to be seen as a major loss. VICA member John Varricchione grew up in the Italian section and will be the presenter. All are welcome.

The Center serves a delicious lunch at 12:00 noon sharp. Reservation required.

If you would like to have lunch prior to attending the talk call 425-6345.

Suggested donation, $5.
