Middletown's favorite Italian ice purveyor got some world-class attention this past weekend when East Hampton native, Miss USA Erin Brady, took a break from her Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign to enjoy a Vecchittos Italian Ice in Boston.

Vecchittos participated in the charity event by providing Italian ice at the New Balance store on Boylston Street in Boston on Sept. 26.

The event was to promote the Susan B. Koman Race for the Cure in Boston this weekend. Erin, born and raised in Connecticut, is a longtime customer of Vecchittos Italian Ice and invited us to participate in the event.

Brady won this year's Miss USA title and will represent the nation on Nov. 9 at the Miss Universe pageant in Moscow, Russia. She is the first woman from Connecticut ever to be crowned Miss USA.
