The traditional spring Polish picnic will take place from 4 to 8 p.m. at Cameron Brown Park Germantown (entrance from Farmington Blvd). We invite all compatriots, supporters and friends to the picnic. The organization traditionally provides grilled Polish sausage and drinks, and participants are encouraged to bring a dish for the common table. The event coordinator is Magda Mazur. See you soon!

We invite members and fans of PAS to a joint strawberry picking, which will take place at Jones Orchard 7170 Hwy 51 in Millington, TN at 10:00 a.m. The organization will provide drinks for all participants and will fund one basket per family for PAS members present during the picking.

This year, during Family Day, which is a meeting exclusively for PAS members, we will celebrate CHILDREN’S DAY. The ceremony will take place in Shelby Forest at 11 am.

The workshops will be a great opportunity to learn traditional Polish dances, learn about their history and meaning, and celebrate Polish cultural heritage together. The meetings will be led by the dance group from Poland and will be offered to PAS members in various age groups. We invite children, youth, and adults to learn Polish folk and national dances. The workshops will be free of charge, but we ask for donations to support the student dance group that comes to us.

The program and additional information about the workshops can be found on our website: https://pasofmemphis.com/polish-dances-workshop/

Interested parties – please fill out the form on the pasofmemphis.com website, and please direct any questions to the workshop coordinator Magdalena Teodorowicz. Don’t miss the opportunity to become part of this extraordinary adventure with Polish culture! We cordially invite you!

The festival will take place on Saturday, August 16 from 11 AM to 5 PM, as in previous years at the Agricenter in Cordova.
Sign up Genius was sent to all members in the first half of September. To participate, please sign up via Sign Up Genius and arrive at 10:45 AM in folk costumes or in the national colors of Poland.
For years, our stand has enjoyed great interest. This year we plan to sell many Polish products (sausages, pierogi, T-shirts, Easter eggs, etc.), there will also be a photo booth, and an exhibition. Your help and participation are essential. Remember that the festival is the primary source of income for our organization. The income helps us reduce the costs of Christmas Eve and finance events organized during the year. We need hands to prepare and assemble the stand, and to prepare and sell goods.
We remind you that the festival is also an excellent opportunity for young people to gain volunteer hours.

This year’s camping for interested children and adults will take place at Chickasaw State Park. It will begin on Friday, September 19 and end on Sunday, September 21. Interested parties are asked to contact Justyna Żyłka-O’Brien via email at pasofmem@gmail.com or through the Polish-American Society Facebook page with questions and formalities. Signing the Waiver on our website is required to participate in this event. At the same time, we remind you that parents, not the organization, are responsible for the safety of children at the campsite. We wish you a lot of fun.
