PHOTOS: PECH AT UKRAINIAN FESTIVAL
Wizards forward/center Oleksiy Pecherov participated in the Annual Washington Area Ukrainian Festival on Saturday in Silver Spring, Maryland. Pecherov was also extended an invitation to take part in the opening ceremonies with Archbishop Antony of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in the United States and Oleh Shamshur, the Ambassador of Ukraine to the United States and other state and local dignitaries.
Pecherov was joined by his parents: Vladimir and Olga and his younger brother Sasha. His family is spending the month of September visiting their son and brother in his new home of Washington, DC.
Pecherov enjoyed the afternoon as he visited and mingled with different families, took pictures with new, adoring fans and enjoyed a Ukrainian feast.

i wanted to go see him in person to see his height and strenght for myself cause I’m obsessed, but I had a poker tournament I qualified for to play. I didn’t go far in it so maybe i was better off going to see pech then going to some party I missed too and getting trashed (cause it’s the responsible thing to do)
