Croatian Fraternal Union Lodge No. 352

 

Croatian Sokol Lodge 352 was organized June 24, 1907.  Charter members were Andrew Strazicich, Stiepo Grzich, Steven Scurich, Nikola Radimir, Guraka Rilovich, Pavao Perovich, Louis Kusalich, Nick Hrepich, Nikola Sresovich, John Braica, Tomo Previsich and Miho Magud.

In February 6, 1942, English Speaking Lodge 944 was organized and then merged with Lodge 352 on March 1, 1946. Junior Order Nest 259 was organized in 1930. Lodge meetings were held at the I.O.O.F. Hall, with monthly charges of $6, and this included a large locker for storage.  October 17, 1989, this landmark was destroyed by an earthquake.  This meant a new home had to be found for our meetings. Currently we are meeting at the home of Roy and Ann Clay.

Our lodge was very fortunate in being represented at most of the early conventions by our late brother John Scurich.  After his passing, Stella Jagich, secretary, has represented when elected.

On August 20, 1949, a program was held at the Watsonville High School Auditorium.  This was a celebration of the 55th Anniversary of the Croatian Fraternal Union.  A play featuring our local members was given and lodge members from out of town performed.  A dance followed. On November, 1949, the Central Committee of Northern California Lodges held a Gala 55th Anniversary Celebration at the Oakland Auditorium.  Our lodge performed with the same program held in August.  All of the lodges in the Central Committee performed dances of songs.  Our special guests from the Home Office, President V.I. Mandich, and secretary John Badovinac spoke.  One of our members, Polly  Previsich, who had a beautiful voice, was asked to do the Dalmatinski Sajkas, and his brought the house down.  The audience gave her a standing ovation. On January, 1952, we travelled to Sacramento for a concert and dance; January, 1953, a concert and Ball was held at the Civic Auditorium celebrating our 65th Anniversary of the Croatian Fraternal Union.  Our special guest for the evening was Edo Lubich who entertained the audience with his beautiful voice.  This hall was huge and it was filled to capacity.

In May 30-31, 1959, we took a giant step and sponsored the Annual California Bowling Tournament. Northern and Southern California Bowlers were housed at the Mark Thomas Inn and bowled at Cypress Bowl.  This was a most enjoyable weekend for all; February, 1960, brought us to our 11th Annual Program and Dance.  We sponsored the Dalmatian Chorale, a Cappela Chorus, under the direction of Branko Porobic.  Their performance was spectacular, the voices were beautiful and dance followed; Aug. 3, 1963, our 13th Annual Program and Dance was held.  The Glee Club from the Army Language Institute performed.  Our local members performed dance and song.  Yvonne and Kathy Cetinich were also on stage entertaining the audience.

With the passing of time, our lodge today has two picnics a year, one in May, and the other in August.  We have our Annual Dinner honoring our new officers and, of course, our 50 year members are given special tribute.

Christmas is always a very special time for our Junior Order members as we always have a Potluck Dinner.  Santa and Mrs. Claus have been with us to distribute Christmass cheer and gifts; 1989, 1991, and June of 1993, we were very fortunate in being able to sponsor the Green Town Jazz Band from Ljubljana under the DIrectorship of Borut “Bodo” Buchar.  People locally and from far away enjoyed their music.

Since the war in Croatia, our local lodge has been very active in contributing monies at the National level and also locally with local organizations.  Members contributed many long hours of work in preparing containers for shipment.  Lodge contributions have been given to the Scholarship Foundation, Salvation Army, United Way, and any other needy organizations.  Members make visitations to convalescent hopsitals, the local hospital, visiting the sick at home and working with charities.

In conclusion, a special tribute is extended to all of our members for their constant support and talents throughout the years.  In looking back, John Scurich and Mildred Ristich contributed so much in instilling in us an appreciation of our music and dance. May they and all our members who have passed away rest in peace. Our lodge is always working toward increasing our membership and keeping the spirit of “All For One and One For All”. On this, our 100th Anniversay, our congratulations to National President Bernard M. Luketich and his staff and all members of our society for continued peace and growth in this our great society. Pioneer members of this Lodge were:
