SUMMER CAMP
IN ZAOLZIE. REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!
Bystrzyca,
Český Těšín, Jabłonków, Karviná, Sucha Górna, Třinec (Leszna Dolna), and
Wędrynia—these are the towns where this year’s "Vacation in Zaolzie” day camp,
organized by the Congress of Poles in the Czech Republic and the Association of
Polish Youth in the Czech Republic, will be held. Registration has just begun,
and the first participants are already signing up.
REGION: WE
KNOW WHERE THERE WILL BE A CHANGE IN THE MAYOR
For some,
it will simply mark the end of their term; for others, it will be a farewell to
the municipal office. We asked local officials in the Zaolzie region who
identify as Polish whether they plan to run in the upcoming municipal
elections. The elections will take place on October 9–10.
CIESZYN: A
CITY SCAVENGER HUNT FOR STUDENTS, RESIDENTS, AND TOURISTS
An engaging
city scavenger hunt has been launched in Český Těšín and Cieszyn, designed
primarily for students from the region, but also for tourists and residents.
There are four themed routes to choose from.
THE HOCKEY
ELITE IS GATHERING IN SWITZERLAND. THE 2026 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IS ABOUT TO
BEGIN
You can
never get enough of ice hockey. Today in Switzerland, the elite world
championships kick off, which will determine the best national team in 2026—a
year dominated in February by the Olympic Games in Italy. There, the U.S.
hockey team celebrated a gold medal after defeating Canada 2-1 in overtime in
the final. What will happen this time? We’ll find out on May 31 in the final
scheduled for Zurich.
