Miss Texas,
Vrazels to headline
Lodge 24, Cyclone
Czech Heritage Day
Ladies and Gentíemen,
Boys and Girls!
Come one, come all to the Fourth
Annual Czech Heritage Day celebra-
tion at Flag Halí on Saturday, October
5 hosted by SPJST Lodge 24,
Cyclone. Flag Halí is located 12 miles
east of Temple, past Zabcikville.
The annual celebration is a spirited
tribute to Czech heritage and culture
in Texas. Establishing a sense of com-
munity was very important to early
Czechs in Texas. It still is and thaťs
the whole idea of Czech Heritage Day
— bringing people together.
Doors open at 2 p.m. for the event
which will include a Czech-English
polka mass, public dance and a fire-
works display. Speciál guests of
honor and performer at this year’s
celebration will be the recently
crowned Miss Texas 2002 Lisa
Dalzell of Magnolia, Texas. The
recently crowned SPJST State King
and Queen are also planning to attend.
At 5 p.m., attendees of all denomina-
tions are invited to attend the Czech
polka mass with music by Vrazels
Polka Band. Following the polka mass,
the Vrazels will píay for a public dance
from 7 to 10:30 p.m. Tickets for the
evening dance will be $5 per person
and ages 13 and under will be admitted
free. The kitchen will be open.
As in previous years, the big fire-
works display will begin shortly after
9 p.m. This is always a crowd pleaser
and this year’s show should be no
exception. A prize drawing will also
be held. Watch your Vestnik for
details as the dáte approaches.
Fratemally,
Brian Vaniček, President
P.S. — Out-of-towners with recre-
ational vehicles welcome. Hook-ups
