CONGRATULATIONS TO US!

What an incredibly special event for our community! Our 75th Anniversary Gala was a night to remember, filled with wonderful memories that we will cherish for many years to come.

A heartfelt thank you to all of our special VIPs who joined us for this milestone celebration. Your presence made this already special evening even more memorable.

Celebrating 75 years of community, culture, and tradition is truly something to be proud of.

Here’s to another 75 years!

THROWBACK THURSDAY – JUST IN TIME FOR HALLOWEEN!

The Slovenian community has always known how to have fun at Halloween, especially when it comes to dressing up for our Masquerade parties!

Over the years, we’ve welcomed bands, hosted plenty of parties, and seen some wild and creative costumes along the way. Here’s a look back at some of the crazy costumes from one of our past Masquerade parties!

Do you remember attending any of our Masquerade parties? Share your memories with us in the comments!

THROWBACK THURSDAY!!

Did you know that Triglav performs at events outside of Folklorama and our own Slovenian community?

Since 1999, Triglav has performed in:

Chisholm, Fort Frances, St. Hilaire, Calgary, Roblin, Riding Mountain National Park
Everett, Beamsville, Portage la Prairie, Selkirk, Italy, Ottawa, Toronto, Cleveland and three separate tours of Slovenia

That’s a lot of performances and a lot of miles! We are extremely lucky to have a dance group that continues to represent and promote our Slovenian community both in Winnipeg and beyond.

This picture is from one of Triglav’s performances in Chisholm, Minnesota. We aren’t sure which visit this was, as Triglav has performed there three times!

Do you remember going on any of these trips, or perhaps travelling with Triglav before 1999? We would love to hear your stories and memories in the comments!

Fall is here, which can only mean one thing — it's time for our annual Koline sausage-making event!

The CSCS will be hosting our sausage-making day on November 7th, and we're inviting everyone to come out, volunteer, and learn how to make traditional Koline sausages. It's a great opportunity to lend a hand, learn something new, and enjoy a fun day with our Slovenian community! Sausages will be ready for pickup on November 8th.

Interested in volunteering? We'd love to have you join us!

Want to order sausages? We're doing things a little differently this year and will be accepting pre-orders only.

To place your order, please email Evan Slejko at [email protected].

Price: $7.00 per pound

We look forward to another great year of sausage-making and bringing our community together. Thank you for your continued support of the CSCS!

THROWBACK THURSDAY!!!

Our church hall has been a mainstay for performances by our dance groups for generations. In fact, Triglav and Zvoncek performed there just a few months ago!

Here’s a great picture from the 1970s showing one of our dance groups performing at a special event.

Do you remember performing in our church hall? Maybe you recognize someone in the picture!

Let us know in the comments.

THROWBACK THURSDAY!!

Over the years, we’ve had many catechism classes perform for our community, creating memories that have lasted for generations.

Here’s a snapshot of one of our catechism groups from the 1990s!

Do you recognize anyone? Let us know in the comments!

THROWBACK THURSDAY!!

To be completely honest, we have no idea what is even happening here! But we absolutely love seeing all these young people in the 1970s singing what we can only assume is a Slovenian song.

Do you recognize anyone in the picture? Maybe you were even there!

Let us know who you recognize in the comments!
