Anniversaries

Anniversary Stories

Since the inception of the Hungarian Self Culture Society of Welland in 1921, there have been many anniversaries celebrated at the Hungarian Hall.  Over the years, we have hosted large parties with hundreds of guests, dignitaries, politicians, and clergy present while at other times, as in 1925, due to WWI and WWII, we celebrated quietly out of respect for our fellow members fighting in the war.  Regardless of the circumstances,  we always came together as a community to remember our founders and the sacrifices made by fellow members to honour our forefathers and to keep the goals of the society and the membership alive.
