Thousands are expected to turn out for the annual Czech Festival, always held the 1st Saturday in October.  Festival goers will literally get a taste of Czech culture including food, music, dancing, traditional costumes and imported merchandise.

“The Czech Festival is our way of preserving and sharing of the old Czech customs along with providing a part of the traditional Czech foods, so dear to the people of Czech decent,” said Marjorie Jezek, President of the Oklahoma Czech Inc.  “These customs and food recipes have been handed down from generation to generation.”
