On December 18, 2004, the party was presented in the meeting hall and cafeteria of the Polish National Alliance, Chicago, Illinois. The festivities started with hot dogs, potato chips, cookies, soda and milk, followed quickly by the singing of koledy [Polish Christmas Carols]. A surprise visit by Polish singing star Irena Jarocka thrilled kids, parents and Chicago Society members alike. Then the crowd was entertained by a show with wild animals, including monkey, chinchilla, leopard, porcupine and a huge python. Last, but by no means least, Swiety Mikolaj [Santa Claus] appeared to call each child by name and present him or her with a present. A five dollar bill for every child will also enable them to buy something of their choice.
