Please
join FRUA-WI in a cultural celebration…
our 14th annual YARMARKA
Sunday, September 16, 2007
Konkel Park,
Greenfield, WI
11:30-3:00
Going to a festival brings a SMILE to everyone’s
face! Open markets date back to the middle
ages and are still popular throughout Russia,
Ukraine, and Eastern Europe.
Music, food, games, entertainment, and shopping are all part of
FRUA-WI’s YARMARKA .
There will be smiles all around as your family experiences the culture
of your child’s birth country. Based on
last year’s suggestions, we have a new location, improved offerings, and the
same fantastic caterer! Come join us!
EVERYONE SMILES IN THE SAME LANGUAGE
