== A Little About Me == |
|||
My name is George Mizuk (Miziuk); I am an [[American]] of [[Ukrainian]] heritage, born in [[Trenton, New Jersey]], lived in the surrounding areas, including [[Ewing Township, New Jersey]] and [[Hamilton Township, Mercer County, New Jersey]]. Graduated from [[Steinert High School]] in 1980. |
|||
When I was growing up, I was active in [[Plast]], a Ukrainian scouting organization. As an adult, I was active in the [[Ukrainian American Veterans]] organization, as National Adjutant and New Jersey State Department Commander. |
|||
In 1997 I moved to [[Daytona Beach, Florida]], which is well known for [[Daytona Beach Bike Week]] and the [[Daytona 500]] NASCAR race. I like [[Dale Earnhardt, Jr.|Junior]], not that dang [[Jeff Gordon]]! I am a fan of the [[Daytona Cubs]] minor league baseball team. |
