Anniversary of Pulaski’s Birthday to be Commemorated

Not everyone follows the same date. Most organizations celebrate the wrong date. “According to records of the Holy Cross Church in Warsaw Poland” said Dr. Jack Pinkowski, president of the fledging Poles in America Foundation, “Kazimierz Pulaski was born at home in Warsaw on March 6th 1745. The birth record, written in Latin was not known to the public until a short time ago.”

Because government buildings are closed to the public on Sundays, Dr. Jack Pinkowski has announced that the Poles in America Foundation will observe Pulaski’s anniversary at the Capitol Visitors Center, in Washington, DC, on Monday, March 7th starting at 1:30 pm , instead of March 6th, a Sunday.

Members of the Marcella Sembrich‐Kochanska choir from Philadelphia will sing the national anthems of Poland and the United States, and Polish patriotic songs. The American Council for Polish Culture and its President Debbie Majka, is cooperating with the Poles in America Foundation in these ceremonies.

Individuals and organizations are invited to participate. Light refreshments will be served. Please register via the internet page, www.poles.org/Pulaski , and for detailed, up‐to‐date information.

 Clubs and champions of Pulaski are encouraged to hold observances in their own localities on March 6, the true date of Pulaski’s birth.
