During the weekend of July 9-11, 2010, SNPJ will celebrate the 29th anniversary of Slovenefest along with the 54th anniversary of the Miss SNPJ Pageant, which has become a highlight of Slovenefest activity since moving to Slovenefest weekend back in 1998. The four performance venues for Slovenefest XXVIII include the air-conditioned Alpine Room and the spacious Outside Stage, which host the popular Slovenian-style polka bands; the new International Pavilion, which is reserved for more traditional, ethnic Slovenian musicians and visiting performers; and the Gostilna (club room), which pulses with the beat of a variety of button box clubs and good-time musicians. Do you consider yourself a musician? Bring along your instrument and join in the jam sessions scheduled throughout the weekend in the Food & Jam Tent.
There’s something for everyone at Slovenefest — music, dancing, food, friends and fun! So get the entire family together this July and head out to the SNPJ Recreation Center in the Borough of SNPJ (Enon Valley), Pa., [map it] to help SNPJ celebrate another fun-filled Slovenefest weekend.
