68th Wedding Anniversary

This past Sunday (January 24, 2010) at our dance with Frank Moravcik we had a couple of very dedicated "polka people" who drove to our SNPJ Spring Hill Hall all the way from Fort Meyers on the East coast of Florida.

The dedicated 'Ohio Polka Friends' names are Ralph and Kathryn Knick, who are celebrating their 68th Wedding Anniversary on February 7th, 2010.

Ralph and Kathryn met at the dance in Ansonia in 1939 and started polka dancing about 35 years ago.

Frank Moravcik with his band played the Waltz of Love for Mr. and Mrs. Knick, to honor their special day.

Wedding Anniversary

We have heard about quite a few very impressive wedding anniversaries at the board meetings in our SNPJ 778 Spring Hill hall. At the moment I don't have the whole list with all the names and numbers but I did manage to take two photos of one of the hardest working couple from our Lodge.

The president of our Club Ben Drongosky and his wife Carol celebrated 52nd wedding anniversary in December of 2009. On both of these pictures they are dancing their "happy anniversary dance" to the music ob Bob Turcola's band, playing at our New Year's Dinner Dance - which was also Ben's idea - and a great success.

Ben and Carol Drongosky are two of the hardest working and caring people in Spring Hill SNPJ Lodge 778. In the name of many of us who also care and work for the continuity of our Spring Hill hall, I'd like to say this:

We know how hard you work and very much appreciate everything you do - even when it doesn't seem or sound like we do. Thank you!! :)

I had to be a little sneaky to find out which was Carol's and Ben's favorite tune. Carol told me that The Blue Skirt Waltz by Frank Yankovic was the first waltz she heard when she started dating Ben. So - here it is Carol, for you and your husband: click on the play button below and enjoy!

I hope you danced, congratulations once again...
