For the Polish American Heritage Month Coloring Contest this October, we are excited to present a theme highlighting Poland’s international achievements. As of the 2024 Summer Olympics, Poland continues to build on its legacy of strong performances. The country secured several medals across various sports including tennis, fencing, volleyball, sport climbing, boxing and more. In total, Poland took home 10 medals: 1 gold, 4 silver, and 5 bronze. The 2024 Summer Olympics reinforced Poland’s status as a competitor, adding to its impressive overall medal count and showcasing the continued strength of Poles on the international stage.

We await your entries – prizes will be awarded to winners in multiple age categories!
