One Response to Traditional Czech Dancing and Music @ UMass Lowell, April 14

    I was in Czechoslovakia a few months after the Velvet Revolution. I met many people who took part in the revolution. I have been there twice. The Czech people love the United States. The Czech people even under communism were 100% literate. The university should recruit Czech players to play on the UMASS/Lowell hockey team. Then we would be in the top tier in Hockey East. I will make every effort to attend.
