Festivals and Bazaars

The 2nd annual Polish Festival at Our Lady of Czestochowa Church in Houston was a rousing success. The festival was held on Saturday, May 3, 2008 on the church grounds in Spring Branch. Our Lady must have put in a good word for the parish because the weather was just about as perfect as it can get. The festivities started at 10 am and when I left a little after 9 pm it was still going strong. Everybody I talked to in the large crowd was having a good time.

Each year, my wife and I attend quite a few church bazaars and festivals, especially in the fall of the year. We enjoy them all, but our favorite is always the last one we attend each year, the Polish Festival in Brenham. This year, the 17th Annual Polish Festival was held on Sunday, October 28th at St. Mary Catholic Church in Brenham, Texas.

Polish heritage is a big thing in Brenham and the surrounding areas so it was no surprise that a big crowd gathered for the fun and food. In addition to the natives, there were a lot of people with Polish roots from all over Texas.

St. Mary Catholic Church in Bremond, Texas held their annual homecoming bazaar on Sunday, October 21, 2007. Polish Texans with roots in Robertson county came in from all over to celebrate their Polish heritage. The weather turned out great with lots of sunshine and it seems to me that there was a larger than normal crowd.

A delicious barbecue beef and sausage dinner was served beginning at 11:00 am along with all of the fixings, home made deserts and ice tea. The long dinner line formed early and wound its way out of the hall.

Lunch was served beginning at 11:00 am with great self serve barbecue pork and beef with all of the fixings along with home made deserts and ice tea. If you went home hungry, it was your own fault. I’ve been going to St. Joseph’s bazaar for at least 15 years now and their barbecue has always been some of the best in the state.
