It was a beautiful sunny day in Bremond Texas as St. Mary’s Catholic Church held their annual homecoming bazaar on Sunday, October 19, 2008. People with roots in Robertson county came in from all over to celebrate their Polish heritage.
A delicious barbecue beef and sausage dinner was served beginning at 11:30 am along with all of the fixings, home made deserts and ice tea. The long dinner line formed early and continued into the early afternoon. There was also some good take home barbeque beef and chicken available at the pits..
There was a lot of activity for all ages including the Country Store, Toy Town and Plant Booth along with face painting and hay rides for the young and young at heart. The Homemade Goods booth sold lots of delicious Bremond food. It was standing room only at the auction where livestock, furniture, tools and lots of homemade items were sold to the highest bidder. Bingo was played in the hall from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm and the Raffle drawings was held at 8:00 pm.
