At Soyuzivka: August 1-3


KERHONKSON, N.Y. - The Ukrainian National Association Estate invites all to spend a fine weekend relaxing in the scenic Catskills Mountains away from the troubles and tribulations of everyday life.

On Friday, August 1, dine on sumptuous seafood at Soyuzivka's Odesa Night, starting at 6:30 p.m. on the Veselka Patio. Later, kick back at the popular Trembita Lounge as Soyuzivka's house band, Lvivyany, entertain you with their unique Ukrainian sound.

On Saturday, August 2, take in the greenery, hike Soyuzivka's plentiful trails, sun at poolside, or visit the gift shop and cultural exhibits in the Main House. At 8:30 p.m., come to the Veselka Pavilion to hear and see the dynamic Lvivski Muzyky, now on their U.S. premiere tour. The four gentlemen, who were hot during New York City's St. George Ukrainian Church Festival in May of this year, will be even hotter, bringing down the curtain with Ukrainian folk music, replete with accordion, sopilka, traditional drums and guitars. Their repertoire weaves a mix of western Ukrainian regional music and martial themes, with some cabaret-style numbers thrown in for good measure.

Following the show, head upstairs and dance the night away to the Burlaky from Canada, who will play until late into the night.

On Sunday, August 3, relax, take in a fine brunch prepared by renowned Chef Andriy Sonevytsky and head on home.

For further information and room reservations, call (914) 626-5641.
