dtj taborville hall-25

Join us for the return of a popular event at a new venue–a fall clambake and car show at DTJ Taborville (9850 North Blvd., Auburn Twp., OH 44023–the entrance is at the corner of Bartholomew and Quinn Roads).  The clambake will be served from 1- 3 p.m. on Sunday, September 18th.  In addition to a great meal, we will be entertained with a variety of Czech music by the renowned local musician John Pastirik.

We will have a special parking area for our Mercedes-Benz.  The car show is a casual, non-judged display, but your car might win one of the people’s choice awards!

Not familiar with DTJ Taborville?  Here’s a little history–DTJ logo-small

The initials DTJ stand for “Delnicke Telocvicne Jednoty” or “Workers’ Gymnastic Union”.  DTJ as an organization is a part of the great Labor Movement as the translation implies.  It is an International organization, whose program consists of training the youth of the world to enable it to take part in the great movement for a better and more just organization of human society.

The DTJ organization was formed by a group of tailors in Prague, 1897.  The group was sympathetic towards the Social Democratic movement of that period.  Gym work was started immediately, classes being held wherever room could be found, mostly at the Inns.

The first DTJ group to be formed in America was founded in Cleveland, Ohio by members of the Lassalle Senior Club in 1909.  Soon after another group was organized in Chicago, Illinois.  An organization affiliated with the DTJ is the American Sokol of New York.

The traditional clambake includes:  Broth, Chowder, Clams, ½ Chicken, Coleslaw, Sweet Potato, Sweet Corn, Coffee, Cash Bar (Beer, Soft Drinks, and Treats only, no Liquor sold).

If your not a fan of clams, there will also be a chicken-only dinner available (as above without clams).

The cost for the clambake is $25; additional clams are $8; the chicken dinner is $17;

Reservations are due no later than September 11th!!
