Followed by a Hungarian Fall Festival on September 26, 1976. And the most beautiful New Year’s Eve Party — First Class all the way — with a roast pig, hurka, kolbász, laci pecsenye, and all the trimmings of other foods. Topped off by all types of Hungarian Pastries, Dobos Tortes, Dios Tortes, Retes, kalach, etc. Each person was given a Hungarian song book (put together by our chairman Alex Horvath). This year we followed through with a picnic which also was very successful. We will have our Fall Festival, Sunday, October 2, 1977 at St. Helen’s Church Hall on Route 87 in Newbury, Ohio.
