The first Lower Silesian Miss Rural Housewives’ Associations competition was held on November 19, 2017, at the Knights’ Academy in Legnica. The Bolesławiec municipality was represented by two women from the Rural Housewives’ Association in Ocice: Katarzyna Pielichata and Teresa Zwolennik. “The competition was announced throughout the Lower Silesian Voivodeship in several categories: Miss Rural Housewives’ Associations, Miss Audience, Miss Facebook, and two additional categories: Miss 50+ and Miss Fair Play. Fifty women of different ages took part—from the youngest, a 13-year-old girl, to mature housewives over 60, who demonstrated a great sense of humor, openness toward people and extraordinary courage,” says Ewa Sondaj, a county councilor from Ocice.
She adds: “Our candidate, Katarzyna Pielichata, achieved tremendous success by becoming first runner-up in Miss Facebook, receiving 1,291 votes from internet users.”
The initiator and main organizer of the competition was Radosław Zysnarski, president of the Regional Association of Farmers’ Circles and Agricultural Organizations Radosław Zysnarski.
