Kathrein Stellt den Tanz Ein = Katharina ends the dance season.  In Bavaria and Tirol, St. Katharina's Day, November 25, ends the dance season until after Epiphany on January 6. The linked article was written by Hans Habereder for the Gauzeitung, but it did not make it into the latest issue.  CLICK ON THIS LINK to read about it.

Die Gemuetlichen Schuhplattler of Anaheim, California, asked me to share this information regarding the Gau-NA Delegates Meeting they will be hosting on April 25-26, 2020, at the Phoenix Club:

The November 2019 Gauzeitung has a great article in it about the 15 ladies in Gau-NA who took a Mieder making class from Bavarian master seamstress Annamirl Raab.  The class was coordinated by Karin Schwab and Liz Hostetter and held the week before the Gaufest.  Many of the ladies were able to premiere their beautiful new Mieders at the Gaufest.  Everyone loved working with Annamirl -- she's been well known here for many years for her one-of-a-kind Mieders. Several Gau-NA ladies have travelled to Schliersee over the years to take lessons from Annamirl.
