CFU 125th Anniversary Celebration

CFU's 125th Anniversary Celebration Boat Cruise & Gala Banquet
2019-09-21 - 2019-09-22 | Croatian Fraternal Union of America, 100 Delaney Dr, Pittsburgh, PA, 15235, United States
CFU to Celebrate 125th Anniversary Year in 2019
This is a very special year in our society’s history as we also celebrate the 125th Anniversary of the founding of the National Croatian Society, the forerunner of the Croatian Fraternal Union of America.
In support of our mission of preserving Croatian Culture, our society maintains a beautiful home office facility filled with cultural artifacts, authentic national costumes, naïve art by some of the finest masters of Croatia and bronze sculptures by world-famous Ivan Mestrovic and other talented individuals.
We are pleased to inform all delegates and guests that the CFU Home Office will be open on Saturday, September 21, 2019, from 10:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. for tours. All CFU members should be proud of the impressive collection of history maintained by our society.
The weekend will continue on Saturday, September 21, with an evening Dinner Cruise on the EMPRESS operated by Gateway Clipper Fleet and located in Station Square on Pittsburgh’s Southside. For the very reasonable price of $50, guests will be treated to a buffet dinner and fabulous Tamburitza entertainment from the time they arrive at the dock continuing throughout the evening cruise. We hope to soon announce the confirmation of a very special guest from Croatia who is no stranger to our membership and will entertain one and all in inimitable fashion while sailing the three rivers of Pittsburgh.
We are very happy to inform our membership that arrangements have been made for Holy Mass at St. Nicholas Croatian R.C. Church in Millvale, home to the famous murals of Maxo Vanka, on Sunday, September 22, at 11 a.m. CFU will provide transportation to and from Church for those delegates desiring to attend Mass.
In order to celebrate the historic milestone of our 125th Anniversary, we have planned a gala banquet for Sunday afternoon and early evening. The banquet will offer worthy tribute to the powerful and positive impact that our society has had on its membership and the preservation of our Croatian Culture here in North America. It is with the utmost of pride that we report the Hon. Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic, President of the Republic of Croatia, has confirmed her attendance at our gala celebration.
Once again, fraternalism and celebration of our Croatian culture will be prevalent throughout the Wyndham Grand as good will and tamburitza entertainment fill the air. As per past practice, delegates will receive a complimentary ticket to the 125th Anniversary Banquet. Additional tickets may be purchased for spouses and by guests for the nominal charge of $65 and will include dinner, a complimentary beverage and special guest entertainment during the banquet program. All members attending both the Dinner Cruise and Anniversary Banquet may obtain their two tickets for the special package price of $100.

CFU National Basketball Tournament Cancelled
The health and safety of CFU members is our top priority at the Croatian Fraternal Union. As we continue to monitor the spread of the COVID-19 virus and witness the actions being taken by sports teams, schools and community organizations, a decision has been made to cancel the 2020 CFU National Basketball Tournament. This precautionary decision has been made to safeguard against the spread of the virus and to be proactive, rather than reactive, in order to ensure the safety and well-being of our CFU Membership. We apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused. We are already planning and looking forward to next year’s tournament.

During morning check-in, each team is required to pull, at random, 2 teams to add to their score. The cumulative scores will be the team’s final score. Prizes will be awarded to the top 3 teams in the scramble.

The 4-Man Blind Scramble will take place Friday June 16th at 1:00pm and the Saturday Individual Stroke Play Tournament will take place Saturday June 17th at 9:00am. We ask all golfers to arrive at the course at least 45 minutes prior to your tee time to register and get in a little putting practice.
Each 4-some will be allowed 2 guests/non-members to join them for the tournament. Guests will not be eligible for Tournament prizes but do have the opportunity to win skill prizes. We encourage our members to use this event as an opportunity, to show your friends and family, which might not be CFU members, what our organization is all about. This is a chance to show them Fraternalism at its best!
This year’s tournament registration fee is $140 for Men and Women and $80 for Junior golfers. Your registration includes 2 rounds of golf with cart, food and refreshments at the turn (both days), registration goodie bag provided by the CFU and dinner at the Saturday evening Awards Banquet.
For those golfers coming from out of town, the lodge has secured discounted rates at the Holiday Inn Express, located at 25 Smita Ln, Bentleyville, PA 15314. Room prices start at $100.00 + tax per night. Please call 724-239-7700 or by using THIS LINK to secure your room reservation ASAP.
More event info will be coming soon. Keep an eye out in the Zajedničar for more info.
