Run Celebrating the 550th Anniversary of Mielec’s Founding and the 25th Anniversary of SSE Euro-Park Mielec

09/09/2020

Nearly 500 participants took part in a special 6.5-kilometer run along the Mielec airport runway to mark two significant anniversaries: the 550th anniversary of the city of Mielec and the 25th anniversary of the Special Economic Zone (SSE) Euro-Park Mielec. 

The event was organized by Studio Wizualne Damian Gąsiewski.

Under the honorary patronage of several prominent institutions and companies: the Industrial Development Agency (managing SSE Euro-Park Mielec), Firma Tarapata Sp. z o.o., Bury, Husqvarna Group (Mielec plant), and Polish Aviation Works (PZL Mielec). The Marshal’s Office of the Podkarpackie Voivodeship also extended its patronage under the banner “Podkarpackie – open space.” 

Firma Tarapata Sp. z o.o. prepared special commemorative trophies for the event, including awards for top runners in various age categories.

The company was represented at the event by Andrzej Noworolnik and Olga Markowska, while Dariusz Szady and his family, along with Piotr Wiech, took part in the run itself.

When asked whether they would participate in a future edition of the race, both men responded enthusiastically that they would—and that they plan to encourage more colleagues to join next time.
