Time for another issue of the Gauzeitung! Send your articles and pictures to Gauzeitung@yahoo.com. Tell your fellow Gau-NA members about the events that have started up again in your Vereine. It's been an exciting few months of getting back to regular activities. Plus the next few months have more events coming up to look forward to. The deadline is AUGUST 1.

The August issue of the Gauzeitung will feature our high school or college graduates since last year's issue. Whether you have a grad in the family or are a grad yourself, send the information to Gaujugendvertreterin Diane Meck (Gaujugend@gmail.com) by June 30. Include the following information: Name, Verein affiliation, school, degree, future plans. Send along a picture, too, and name the file with the name of the grad. Let's show off our young people!

Did you know that the Gauverband has a YouTube channel? There are currently six videos on the page. One is from a workshop held at a Delegates Meeting on how to grow your Verein through social media. The other five are workshops held at the 2019 Gaufest in Washington, D.C. Thank you, Alt-Washingtonia, for doing the videoing. The subjects are Goasslschnoizen, How to Conduct a Plattlerprobe, Volkstanz Workshop, Alphorns, and Fahnen Care. As more videos become available, they'll be included on the channel.

So many Vereine still aren't meeting and can't distribute the member subscriptions, so....  Here's the link to the May 2021 issue of the Gauzeitung.  CLICK FOR LINK   

The United German Hungarians will be hosting a Mid-Atlantic Jugend Einzel Workshop on Saturday, July 10, 2021, at the Phoenix Sport Club in Trevose, Pennsylvania. This is a fantastic opportunity for the younger dancers to perform Schuhplattler and also for all of us to spend time with old and new friends. THIS LINK takes you to more details about the event including contacts, hotels, registration, and admission.
