The Kashubs who arrived in Canada in 1858 made the best of what they found in the Canadian wilderness, and 150 years later, their descendants and friends made the best of the cool,
wet day when they gathered to celebrate their heritage- May 3, 2008. The event drew large crowds of people, including Kashubian visitors from Poland and from Wisconsin.
