At Soyuzivka: Labor Day weekend

KERHONKSON, N.Y - Another glorious Soyuzivka summer comes to a close the weekend of August 30 with a Labor Day finale that will make you wish you could do it all over again.

Friday it begins with a concert performance by the Lvivyany in the Veselka hall, in one of their final appearances this year as Soyuzivka's house band. They will move into the Trembita Lounge for the evening dance, while Luna will play on the terrace.

On Saturday at 3 p.m. Darka & Slavko, one of the world's most popular Ukrainian duos, will perform in a special presentation called "Darka & Slavko - plugged in on the patio." The husband-and-wife team, which has performed around the world, will feature their latest album, "Believe" (Povir), as well as songs from their first two releases.

That evening the high-stepping Rozmai Winnipeg CYMK Ukrainian Dancers will be on hand to entertain the crowd in the Veselka hall. Afterwards, Oleksa Kerekesha, soloist from the Ukrainian pop band Fata Morgana, will showcase his musical talents.

On Sunday, Winnipeg-born star of stage and screen Tamara Gorski will entertain Soyuzivka guests with her new musical release, "Vatra," a compilation of various forms of Ukrainian music. Also performing on Sunday will be the Rozmai dance troupe from Winnipeg in an encore appearance and the Lvivyany in their final summer performance. The evening dance will feature two bands well-known to Soyuzivka-goers: Tempo and Fata Morgana.

All during the weekend, the Ukrainian Sports Federation of North America (USCAK) will hold its annual tennis and swimming tournaments.
