Sadly to say, after many years of rumors, Jolly Joe Timmer's Polka Grove in Point Phillips is for sale. Timmer has operated this Polka Fun Center for maybe 50 years or more.
For all of you from Eastern Penna. and adjoining areas, this had been one of the prime Polka dancing venues in the Eastern part of the country.
To all you band leaders and musicians who have played there over these many years, we always marveled at how the heck you found your way out into the boondocks where the grove was located.
Despiite it's idiosyncracies, it was a comfortable, fun, family style place for Polka dancing. It will be sorely missed.
