 Polish passport applications in Seattle - signup list for September

Seattle

signup list

for September

Passport regulations in Poland do not allow for submitting applications by mail anymore; one needs to apply in person before a Polish consul. Consul Marzena Gronostajska plans to come to Seattle in mid-September 2008 to handle applications from local Polish citizens. Mr. Marian Strutynski handles the sign up list for the Consul's visit to Seattle.

 

The passport application forms cannot be printed from the internet, but are available locally; the Consulate in Los Angeles also sends forms upon request. In Seattle, the forms can be picked up ahead of time from Mr. Strutynski.

 

To signup, please contact Marian Strutynski at mstrutynski@msn.com (email contact preferred). Please sign up as soon as possible as the Consul wants to estimate the length of the visit necessary to handle all the applications.

 Volunteers for Pierogi Fest needed!

The yearly Pierogi Fest has become very popular and the organizers want to improve and expand the event. That means more volunteers are needed to run it! If you would like to help, please contact Ryszard Kott.

 

We have a whole range of positions available

 

Starting with help in the kitchen (pierogi are already prepared, we just boil them in big quantities), helping with serving (this is a self serve – buffet style, but still, delivering, condiments etc), helping with selling coffee / tea / pastries downstairs, manning the take out booth with the frozen pierogi, selling coffee / tea / pastries upstairs, etc. Greeters

 

Also we have several positions typically taken by high schoolers needing community hours – parking lot attendants, dish washers, waiters/cleaners.

 

Then, we still look for a cheap place to print a big black/white poster (about 3.5 feet by 6), help with the mass mailing, leaflet printing, passing small posters around. I think there are some other tasks on list that I just don’t remember now

 

Even if you can help for couple of hours please come - for us any help f just makes it easier on everybody who is already involved.

 

Where: at the Polish Home; tickets $14, chidlren up to 11 at half price, kids up to 3 years old free.
