Agnesa Urbanova with her classmates after a 1st May parade

This is a photo of me and my classmates after a May Day parade and demonstration. The photo was taken on 1st May 1955. When I was a little older, I had hobbies. I did quite a bit of hiking, went to the gym, we used to play basketball, volleyball, do gymnastics and so on. We used to ride bikes, go hiking, on trips, we went skiing and in the summer swimming. We attended sports meets, and also had a choir. Later, in Ruzomberok, I had many, many such activities.
