A Message from the Holy Trinity ZABAWA 2011 Polish Summerfest Program
“ Serdecznie witamy i dziękujemy” to our Friends!
Welcome and thank you for joining us at our annual ZABAWA Polish Heritage Festival.
Eighteen years ago ZABAWA began as an idea conceived by a group of Holy Trinity parishioners who hoped to share with our community a celebration of Polish faith, food, music and customs which were brought to the American culture by our ancestors. The dream became reality when the first ZABAWA was held on August 27 & 28, 1994.
We extend our gratitude to the many supporters of Holy Trinity Parish who generously and graciously assisted us in preparation for out 18th Annual ZABAWA. These include the churches, businesses, media, organizations and individuals who provide contributions of sponsorships, facilities, goods, services, publicity, program ads, time and talent. Please remember our sponsors when you require a service or are in need of a product.
And we thank everyone joining us this weekend to celebrate our special event. Holy Trinity has been blessed by so many good friends over the years.
Ciesz się! Enjoy!
From Everyone at Holy Trinity Parish
A wonderful and interesting feature of the dance performance was the accompaniment by an acoustic band known as Bob Ureck Polka Relations. Here they are in action:
