Before the dance party, there was still a special event. Local singers, assembled into a band and prepared by Lidia Pospieszalska, returned to local tradition and beautifully sang the June Service with respect for customs and traditional cultural canons in the form of a ritual performance. The numerous villagers gathered could not hide their emotion, and all expressed their desire for this custom to become a permanent fixture at the Skowronów shrine.
The organizer would like to thank very much for the exceptional commitment during the event to the residents of Skowronów, who, on their own initiative and with their own strength, even built... a special platform for the musical bands. The key role of the host of the venue was played by the Circle of Rural Housewives "Skowronki" with chairwoman Agnieszka Kowalczyk and village head Radoslaw Tomzik.
The event was prepared by the NIKiDW Regional Office in Częstochowa. Partners were the Municipality of Janów and the Local Government Culture and Sports Center in Janów.
