Just as a reminder, I will be collecting dues and donations for the Trachtenkulturzentrum in Holzhausen this weekend at the Delegates Meeting in Delaware. Anyone wanting information on the project and what it is about can go to the link on the Bayerische Trachtenverband’s website or talk to me this weekend or email me at m_olk@msn.com. There will also be information provided at the Delegates Meeting. This is a project that many Vereine and individuals in Gauverband Nordamerika have supported from the beginning.
