AMOPOD is: Americans of Polish Descent. Celebrating our cultural roots can be fun, when done the AMOPOD way.

We organize events that emphasize conversation and therefore appeal to people with something to say. The exchange of ideas and information invigorates our interest in one another and in our shared heritage.

Rain brings no pain.
Yes, there are predictions of rain for Friday. However, that rain will be sporadic. If rain hits, we will hide in the garage until it passes. Bring sandals or go barefoot.

Rain might dampen the grass, but it will not put a damper on our fun.
