45th ANNIVERSARY OF FOLKLORE  ENSEMBLE 

JÁNOŠÍK

FROM SVIT

PAGE THREE

The program was repeated on Saturday for invited guests, many of them former members of the folklore group JÁNOŠÍK. This gala however had an ending with a twist. As it is customary at these anniversary gala programs, there are gifts and speeches at the end of the performance. The last person to give thanks to the members of the folklore group and their director Slavomír Bednarčík was Marek Kačmárek, who is the dance pedagogue of the group. He called Eva Eštvanová who is in charge of the girls and also was the co-author of the Gala program and after all the thanks he asked her for her had. What an end to the Gala, it couldn’t be more perfect. We were all crying with joy and excitement.

Dinner reception and dance party and followed the performance and continued till the early hours of the morning. The weather was really bad; it was freezing and snowing most of the evening. The roads were icy. Since I had to get to Liptovská Teplička that night I didn’t stay too long, but I really enjoyed it all.
