Gábor Varga, the parliament representative of the region, also appeared at the event wiht a large number of peopel. We still got a few minutes.
– This program simply has a lavish atmosphere. Let’s take a look at these people,who come from all ages,from at least two settlements,but they get along very well! Catering is simple,but at such a sporting event,eating and drinking should not be overdone. During the short break, everyone gets one or two fatty breads, cookies and scones, along with hot tea.
Friendship and peace can be seen in them. Of course, I know that if the soccer teams of the two villages compete against each other, then this idyll disappears for those hours and they become real opponents. However, after the match, everything will return to a peaceful atmosphere.
– I played handball, it is indeed still my favorite sport. It also requires a lot of explosive running, but of course I’m no longer among the young men in such good shape, but when I get home, I’ll take out the bike and complete my distance!
The host was the mayor of István Nagykárcsony Mergl.
– Our event may seem solid, but we still had to take it seriously, because we wanted to honor those who were promoted.
It is a great pleasure for us that you came over and spent this little time with us. We are also lighting the first candle now so that their community can also enjoy our Advent joy. I intended it as a symbol that I invited Péter Kanik to this little ceremony.
– We welcomed them with friendship and I can promise that it will always be like this whenever they visit us. After a short rest, we split into two groups, as some will participate in the Holy Mass, while others will not even stop at Santa’s house.
Community celebration
the mayor of Elószállás, Péter Kanik, was certainly not bored this weekend either.He also took part in the Christmas events. He also undertook the lighting of the candles and gave a festive greeting.
“We have a good weekend of powerlifting behind us.” We started by decorating the community venue for the Advent holidays, and to our great joy, not only the youth club, but also other civil organizations and people living outside of them showed up. We can all be proud of the result. And for Sunday, we set our goal to participate in the Santa Run. Many people came for this as well, as more than a hundred and twenty of us gathered.Of course, there were those who traveled the distance by bicycle or horse-drawn carriage, but the point is that they also showed that they were active members of the community. Here, we do our common things with real cooperation throughout the year.
Attuned to the holiday of love, our statement is even more true. We work hard together in a good mood. Our goal is to make Löszállás even more beautiful together!
“I thanked them for it.”
