Polka Jamboree

Franklin Hronik and the Accordion Jamboree entertained at Brookdale this afternoon. In addition to the four accordion players, the drummer, tuba and french horn players are not shown in the picture. They played and Elmer sang many of my favorites. They always seem to have fun playing and it was a very appreciative crowd.   Some of the old Czechs knew all the words to the songs. Jean, the only woman in the group has been with them for a number of years. At one time her Father led the group and her fingers just fly over the buttons of her instrument. We needed something like their music to lighten our spirits after watching the Senator John McCain memorial service from the Capitol this morning.
