Gauverband Nordamerika

Klaus Hornell of Gemütlichen Schuhplattler Anaheim gave an excellent presentation on Lederhosen at the 2023 Gaufest at the Kalahari. It was two hours long with almost 200 slides; Klaus's narration was informative and entertaining, and the time flew by. He has given his permission to post the pdf of his presentation to the Gauverband website--it is available at THIS LINK and also under Resources/Tracht from the home page.
