Ukrainians in Philadelphia celebrate Independence Day of Ukraine every year like this.They have a lot of nice picnics, zabavas every years. You welcome. You can find information about this events in Ukraian Educational and Cultural Center - 700 Cedar Road, Jenkintiwn, PA 19046, phone 215-663-1166.
: Just got off the plane on Sat. from 2 weeks work in Pommyland and although jetlagged there was not going to be any reason to miss the celebration down at Tryzubivka.
:
: With the weather being superb, I had a friend over from NYC who I took down to Horsham. We came late because we were sight seeing with a stop @ SBoundBrook (which also had a concert for Independance Day).
:
: Outdoor activities at Tryzubivka though was for us a better choice. A concert which had *hrubyj* Ivo Bobel was surprising. However, the food was just about gone because of the amount of people who showed up. Nonetheless, the BBQ atmosphere is far more relaxing
: the formal concert etc. As always there were some booths for those who wanted souveniers.
:
: What I can say is that primarily the influx of novoprybuli since YKPAIHA's Independence now almost have become the majority in the diaspora. The so called "New Wave" is IMO the people
: who are now pulling the community. At least those who are visible.
:
: Didn't see, however any Yanks with their mail-order-trophy brides ;^)
: Poka, Xlopchyky i Divchatka!
