Our three annual fundraiser German culture Fests—Maifest, Sommerfest, and Kinderfest—are open to guests and are not to be missed. A polka band, folk and popular group dances in traditional dress, a menu of authentic German/Austrian foods, and of course, excellent beers and other drinks, complete a fun-filled day that is sehr gemütlich for all ages. Special activities are planned for Kinder (children) at Kinderfest.
Wear your Lederhosen, Dirndl, Tirolerhut, or other Tracht (traditional attire) to join in the spirit of the Fest!
