It is a great opportunity to celebrate Polish heritage and celebrate the great history of\u00a0the neighborhood. I know it is easy to write off old Polonia\u00a0and say things like it isn&#8217;t what it used to be. But the places left are ties to the rich heritage our Polish ancestors brought to Buffalo. It is important that they are supported and cherished.<\/p>\n<p>I love these photos of Saint Stan&#8217;s parishioners preparing pierogi in anticipation of Dyngus Day.
