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.

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

enjoyed it all.
