President’s Message
With spring approaching, it is time for us to
start planning our scheduled events for 2016.
Most important, our Fest Committee will be
reviewing last year’s events, with the purpose of
making a fine tuned machine, run even better.
This year marks the 80th year of our club. A
spectacular event celebrating this milestone will
be held on May 15 t h , 2016 at the Ceola Manor.
Those that founded our club in 1936, can only be
proud of what they established, and proud of us,
for keeping their dream alive. Over the past
decades, we have witnessed the passing of many
of the German-American Clubs. Because of our
dedicated membership, we can take pride in our
efforts to keep German Traditions alive in lower
NYS. So, on May 15th, come on out, and celebrate
our longevity.
Our most recent event, our annual Super Bowl
Party, was again a huge success. Many thanks
to Brian and Donna Traynor, Steve Brunner
and his kitchen helpers, and everyone who
provided food.
As we enter spring, it is vital that you keep
informed of various club activities. Please refer
to this newsletter or stop by the club and pick up
a yearly calendar to stay current.
