Happy Birthday to RJT’s sweet little Lainey Jo!

Lainey is a ball of sass and fun! She keeps us laughing, loves being on stage , and even helps us make pierogi!

We’re so happy to have you in our RJT family and can’t wait to watch you grow, dance, learn, and make so many memories with us!

Happy Belated Birthday, Ethan!

We may be a little late, but we couldn’t let your birthday pass without celebrating one of RJT’s longest-standing members.

As a third generation Tammie, Ethan has literally grown up with RJT, learning the traditions and performing at countless shows, your roots truly run deep. From performing on stage to perfecting your Gram’s palačinke, you’ve been part of so many special RJT memories over the years!

Hope your birthday was special and memorable!

The Rankin Croatian Home is more than a club, it’s a place where traditions are shared, friendships are made, and generations come together. It’s also the home away from home for our Rankin Junior Tamburitzans, where our kids practice, grow, and keep our Croatian heritage alive. ❤️🇭🇷

Join us October 17th, 2026 as we celebrate this incredible 100 year milestone with dinner, dancing, and live music by The Adam Lee Morgan Big Band!

Come celebrate a century of memories and help us make many more! See you at the Dom! 🇭🇷❤️

A beautiful moment of tradition and pride!

Our kids are helping carry our culture and traditions forward for the next generation.

What traditions do you and your families celebrate to honor your heritage?

❤️ FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS THANK YOU! ❤️

What started as a heartbreaking rain-out turned into something we will NEVER forget. 🥹🇭🇷

We are overwhelmed with gratitude for our incredible community for showing up, supporting us, and helping make our International Village Croatian booth a SOLD-OUT EVENT! Your generosity, encouragement, and love for our kids means more than we could ever put into words.

A very special THANK YOU to the Mayor of McKeesport for your support and for standing behind our community and the kids of RJT. We are so grateful! ❤️

And to our amazing RJT volunteers….WOW. From cooking and preparing food to serving, setting up, cleaning up, and doing whatever needed to be done, you showed exactly what makes this organization so special. 🇭🇷❤️

Tonight wasn’t just about selling food. It was about community, perseverance, teamwork, and showing up for our kids.

To everyone who came out tonight, purchased a dinner, shared our posts, donated, volunteered, or simply cheered us on, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

We are truly blessed to be part of such an incredible community. ❤️🇭🇷

Hvala!!!!
