For his Roaming St. Louis segment this week, KMOX host Scott Jagow ventured to the very southern tip of South City. That's where you'll find Fanetti Park, home to this weekend's Fanetti Fest, a show of original music with proceeds benefiting the Patch neighborhood and Carondelet Community Betterment Foundation.
Scott visits with organizers Fred Hessel and Charles Calello to learn about the area's history, the festival and the life of Donald Fanetti.
