Agriculture Current Events Detail
A group of farmers and representatives of the agriculture industry in Poland has been touring the United States for the last week, visiting farms and other agriculture related landmarks. The members of the Agriculture Business Association of Poland and The National Association of Cereal Producers of Poland were hosted by Dr. Jim Mazurkiewicz, Leadership Program Director for Texas AgriLife Extension. On Thursday evening, March 3, 2011, Dr. Jim and his wife Kathy opened their beautiful home in Bryan, Texas to host a reception and catered dinner for the Polish delegates.
Roving Polish musicians led by Brian Marshall greeted the delegates as they arrived at the Mazurkiewicz home by bus. As they entered the dinner area, each person was given a small snack and a shot of Sobieski vodka and then they were formally welcomed to Texas by the Mazurkiewicz family and dignitaries from Brazos County and the city of Bryan. Several speeches followed, both in Polish and English. At times, the formal speeches were interrupted by a spontaneous and loud rendition of Sto Lat that broke out from the Polish delegation and spread through the crowd.
Fr. Josef Musiol, pastor of St. Stanislaus Catholic Church in Chappell Hill gave the blessing and then everyone filled up on delicious kiebasa, kapusta, pierogi, ham, cheese and even pączki for desert. A mixture of old Polish Texas music and more modern Polish music was provided by talented musicians and singers including Brian Marshall, Brian Wisnoski, Lawrence Wisnoski, Mark Hopcus, Frank Motley, Dr. Jim Mazurkiewicz, James Mazurkiewicz, CJ Jozwiak, Kasia Stephen and Adam Dratwa. After dinner, tables were moved and the dancing began.
