On Saturday, June 9th, the Kashubian Mysterniks Association organized the Great Generation March under the Sign of the Eagle, an event commemorating the 100th anniversary of Poland regaining its independence.
The march route led from the military unit in Wejherowo to Wejherowo Square, where participants sang patriotic songs together. The idea of the event was to showcase many figures important to Polish history, but also known for their local activities in Wejherowo and the surrounding area. Participants in the march included Pope John Paul II, Stefan Czarniecki, Nicolaus Copernicus, Fryderyk Chopin, Maria Skłodowska-Curie, Adam Mickiewicz, Regina Osowicka, Alojzy Jagalski, and Father Edmund Roszczynialski. The GRYF Museum of Military Technology provided vintage cars: an Oldsmobile for Józef Piłsudski and a Studebaker for Ignacy Mościcki.
