PNA Lodge 1264 - 100th Anniversary Banquet
On Sunday, December 5, 2010, members of the Wawel Folk Ensemble performed at the 100th Anniversary banquet for PNA Lodge 1264 in Hamtramck, Michigan. During the performance, the group presented its Polonez and its Sieradz and Rzeszow suites. The performance had a bit of a "home court advantage" feel for the members because the banquet was held in the Council's hall where the ensemble holds its weekly practices.
After the performance Wawel, along with the guests and dignitaries joined in singing Sto Lat again to PNA Lodge 1264 Members of the ensemble were then invited to remain as guests and the banquet and to participate in a deliciously prepared Polish meal.
Wawel's next public appearance will be at Sweetest Heart of Mary Church in Detroit, Michigan for Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve. Please check the group's blog, website, and facebook for further updates about performances, fundraisers and other happenings. With 2010 winding down the ensemble is gearing up for a great 2011, which will feature return trips to Polish Fest in Milwaukee, WI and to the Rzeszow Folk Festival.
