Entertainment Review: On Saturday, October 23, our Gala 110th Anniversary, held at the Cannstatter V.V. put on display and gathered together all that makes being 110-plus years old matter. It was easy also to see the threads and materials of our future success in the many aspects of our club life in action that evening. What follows is a review of the event written in sections by Karina Fricker and I.
I first encountered the United German Hungarians’ Cultural Group two years ago. I was sitting at a table with my family during Maifest at the Cannstatter. The group took the stage and began to do a partnered folk dance. I was struck by the grace of the dancers, the beauty of the music and the traditional dress. I felt pride for my German-Hungarian descent rise in me—and a desire to be part of what I was witnessing.
This article features a series of quotes from our members, guests, friends and families about our Gala Anniversary celebrating 110 Years!
"We must set goals – collaborate with others – participate -- and host and attend events - because club work and club life will continue to unite our people and keep us strong for many years to come. We must Learn from the past, live in the present and plan for the future. It is important to remember that the level of our success is directly related to our desire to succeed." - Janet Malofiy
Enjoy your big year, you’ve made us all proud!
I read a book recently that many times made me stop and think, so much so that I wanted to pull out a red pen to underline and star the passages so I could save them for a rainy Saturday morning like today when creativity strikes.
We had hoped to celebrate our 110th Anniversary Gala a few times since March of 2020. Now, we invite you to celebrate with us on October, 23 2021 at the Cannstatter Volksfest Verein in Philadelphia.
We are on our way and I am so happy communicate some good news to all of you! The news is that we are getting back to what we once called normal with a “Schedule of Events”!
