Women could interest local authorities and for short time find sponsors, be written off and invite groups of reconstruction of the different countries that for thousand spectators and visitors of town to lead a fine event - a reconstruction of the battle at Ostroleka, and for the first time fight passed in streets of town. On event attend Minister of Defence of Poland Bronislaw Komorowski, a many representatives of embassies and another oficial persons. Organizers planned to spend such event one time in five years, but after success in 2001, they have decided to make his event annual.
