The Mohácsi Sokacok Reading Circle will once again revive what "Pranje na Dunavu" — washing in the Danube — was like in days gone by, next Saturday. As part of an increasingly popular programme, this year they will also prepare stuffed cabbage, of course in the traditional way, with the "szárma" cooked in earthenware pots, and they are looking for table groups to sign up.
The programmes begin at two o'clock in the afternoon with the lighting of the fire, then at four o'clock the procession sets off from the circle's headquarters on Táncsics Mihály Street to the Sokac-waterfront.
The association's tradition-preserving group will start washing at half past four, followed by a cultural programme.
At eight o'clock the ball and dance house begin, with music provided by the Glasovi band.
The programme, which has been traditionally held on the first weekend of July for more than ten years now, attracts ever more curious visitors, with regularly several hundred gathering at the waterfront.
Beyond being an interesting and spectacular programme, it is worth visiting the washing for those under forty because many of them have certainly never seen how Danube washing once took place, and for those older it also awakens fond memories of recalling the atmosphere of this laborious work that was almost everyday as recently as the nineteen-sixties. As part of the event, this year too they will prepare stuffed cabbage, of course in the traditional way, with the "szárma" cooked in earthenware pots. They are looking for table groups to sign up for this and for the festival of foods cooked on open fires.
