From organizing soccer watch parties at the St. Anthony’s Croatian Catholic Church in Los Angeles attended by thousands, to NBA Croatian Heritage Nights and Croatian picnics and a soccer tournaments, LA Vatreni has been keeping the culture alive and uniting Croatians in Los Angeles with their events.
Two of the co-founders, Petar Repar and Josip Sep, were guests this week on the All Things Croatia podcast.
