Oklahoma Czech Festival is this Saturday, October 3rd! Come and join the parade at 10AM and celebrate with us Czech heritage in Yukon Oklahoma!
Yukon is known as the Czech Capital of Oklahoma because so many people from the country immigrated here in 1800s.
The most popular food from Czechoslovakia is a pastry called a kolache (pronounced koh-lah-chuh). A kolache is a delicious, small bun usually filled with fruit or cheese.
The Czech Festival is a way for the people in Yukon with Czech and Slovak backgrounds to preserve and share their Czech customs, clothing, and foods. One of the main attractions of the festival is dancing.
Good times and good food! See you there tomorrow...
