Karneval at Turnverein |

This years Karneval / Mardi Grass event took place at the Turnerhall in Sacramento together with the Turnverein. The doors opened at 6pm. We had organized a bus coming down from Placerville, which arrived 15 minutes past the hour. Around 40 people joined the ride with the bus, so that they wouldn’t have a problem if they drink. The Turnverein was a really good host; they offered drinks, food and hospitality. They reserved some tables for us. I haven’t counted them all, but I think the hall was almost sold-out; more than 200 people joined this function. There were approximately 80 from the Stammtisch. The Gruber Family Band started at 7pm. They have been renamed as Al Gruber retired at the end of last year. Shortly after 8pm Sabine announced together with Walter (from the Turnverein) our Hofmarschall Juergen Muenster. From there on, he took over. The Elferrat marched in, as well as our lovely young ladies from the dance group and finally they arrived: Prince Gerd and Princess Karin from the Himalaya (Gerd and Karin Bitzer). They both wore gorgeous Indian costumes. The dance group performed in an excellent way, thanks again to their trainer Gisela. The party continued: dancing, talking, having fun. Later our Elferrat performed their traditionally skit; Erika introduced them as American Ladies from all over the Country coming here to become “California Girls”. Unfortunate we had some technical difficulties, it was planned to play that famous song from the Beach Boys, but it didn’t work out. Eventually the bus came and our members left the party at 11:15. To see some photos, have a look into our Gallery. |

Stade Zeit? |

In Bavarian they use often the phrase"Stade Zeit", which describes the calm winter times prior
to Christmas. Well, I cannot say that the last weeks have been very calm. We had our final function
this year our Advent Party at the Sierra Banquette Center in Camino. It was actually really nice and
cozy, but calm? Actually the end of the party was a little stressful. Everybody wanted to get
home - not because they didn't like it. Now, because of the snow! It started snowing,
Highway 50 East was closed, streets where snowy and icy. I have to tell you, this weather starts
in Bavaria usually in November, sometimes end of October and stays until March or April. Anyway,
we all made it home save and without any major problems. But it looks like, that everybody tries to squeeze in some more parties, you have to go for
shopping, going to get the best bargains. See that you get all the gifts for the loved ones and
of course you have to finish your job. Get everything done, so that you (maybe) can take off
a couple of days around Christmas. Same thing for me, busy - busy - busy. Btw. that's also
the reason why the new Newsletter will reach you after Christmas, I apologize. Today I uploaded the photos from Christmas event, have a look at all the people,
Santa Claus and the snow. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
to all our Families, Members and FriendsThe President and the whole board of the Stammtisch Eldorado. |

Merry Christmas everybody! Thanks for coming to our Advent Party. We hope everybody made it home without any trouble. I think I must have played "Leise rieselt der Schnee" and "Let it snow" one time to often! Well, we should not complain, a Christmas Party with Snow - isn't that what we wanted? |
