Bavarians' Visit to Gaufest 2013

Fifty Trachtler and Trachtlerinnen from the Dreiflüsse Gauverband and the Oberer Lechgau Gauverband attended the Gaufest this year. They also traveled and participated in Heimatabende in New York, Washington, D.C., Montreal, St. Catharines, and Ottawa. Members of Maple Leaf-Almrausch, Ottawa, traveled with them at various times and arranged their trip for them. The August 15 edition of the Heimat- und Trachtenbote has a full-page article in it about the trip. The travelers had a great time everywhere they went and especially enjoyed the Gaufest.
