     In the autumn of 2002 we presented dances from the Dunántúl (Trans-Danubian) region of Hungary at a number of events, with the participation of new members. These included the Regional Children's Festival in Feled on 18 October; the Fülekpüspüki Harvest Celebration on 26 October; and the pre-Christmas festivities in Fülek on 14 December. In addition to these events we also responded to all invitations

  (e.g. by schools or the local authority in Lučenec), wherever there was demand for   traditional folklore performances. Currently the ensemble is learning dances from the   Gömör region of Slovakia. Choreography has been based on games, "circle dances"   (karikázó) and the czardas (czardas) by Erika Habodász. The new show was presented to   audiences in Lučenec on 15 March 2003 and also at the Somos Children's Festival.
