Gauverband Nordamerika

The Gauverband Directory has been updated to reflect changes submitted as of November 2024.  Go to Member Vereine to access the latest information.  Thank you to Gaubeisitzerin Brenda Nowak for taking on this big task.

We invite you to join us at the 30. Gaufest to be held Thursday July 3 through Sunday, July 6, 2025, in Newark, Delaware. The members of the Enzian Volkstanzgruppe and the United German Hungarians along with the Delaware Saengerbund, look forward to welcoming you to the beautiful grounds of the Delaware Saengerbund.  Our goal is to maintain the culture of the traditional North American Gaufest with a focus on providing an affordable weekend for families.

Many thanks to Peter Backhaus of SGTV Alpenblumen, Rhode Island, for creating a directory to the Vereine's social media sites! The file is arranged by country, then province/state. It includes links to website, Facebook page, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok pages. As links become known, Peter will update the file so that it is always as current as possible. To that end, there's a link to a form in the upper left that you can use to let Peter know about changes.

Are you in the mood for a great evening with friends, fellow Trachtler/innen, good music, an amazing Brotzeit, and dancing? GTEV Chiemgau, Windsor, Ontario, is the place to experience just that on Saturday, Nov. 16!  The members would love to see you there.  See the flyer below for details.
