More
NEW YORK – Saturday, December 19, marked the feast day of St. Nicholas according to the Julian calendar, and the New York Branch of Plast Ukrainian Scouting Organization celebrated “Sviato Mykolaya” with a children’s play organized by head counselors Dianna Shmerykowsky and Ostap Gladun, and directed by Ivan Makar. “Ptashata,” the youngest, 5-year old members of Plast, “novatstvo” (cub scouts age 6-11) and “yunatstvo” (scouts age 11-18) participated in an enchanting story about a young girl who had to decide between good and evil. The first scene began with the sprinkling of snowflakes, and the Ptashata danced a short dance choreographed by counselor Chrystia Gorski-Makar. Seen above are “Ptashata” who played the roles of snowflakes in the play “Eve of St. Nicholas”: (front row, from left) Sofiya Mato, Marta Rak, Zoryana Popadynew, Nicolas Mychalczak, (back row) Karina Decherytsia, Lev Ferencevych, Taras Rusynyak, Martin Pedragosa, Alexa Chwyl and Boyan Makar.
