Polka Dances
Schedule of Dances less than a tank of gas away

All around Toledo, Detroit, Cleveland and the Midwest, more and more people are dusting off their polka shoes and putting that old leather to good use. Polka music is still the happiest music around. Life is too short and the world too troubled not to have some old-time fun. Now, if only our politicians would learn to polka!

Polish Language Classes at Toledo PRCUA

Open to members and non-members

The Polish language can be challenging for those who first come into contact with it. Polish pronunciation and the various endings of words found in Polish grammar represent a marked departure for those familiar with Western European languages. While challenging, not only is Polish language proficiency achievable, but it can also be an enjoyable learning experience! Much of this depends on teaching methods and language instructors.
