Polka music still going strong in Kewaunee County

A music and dance style that originated in the Czech Republic nearly 200 years ago is alive and well in Kewaunee County.  Happy Hoppers Dance Club features polka music one Sunday a month at the Rendezvous of Luxemburg.  Kelly Froelich, the owner of the Rendezvous, explains why polka music still attracts big turnouts at his upstair's dance hall.

 

 

Froehlich says the four-hour event features different polka bands every month.  The Rendezvous will host the John Valenta Band this Sunday starting at 1 pm.
