Dear Members,
As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on all that we have accomplished together. It has been a year filled with joy, friendship, and the vibrant spirit of club life. The memories we created will remain with us for years to come.
This past summer, we had the privilege of hosting a momentous Gaufest alongside our friends from the Enzian Volkstanzgruppe. We welcomed guests from across North America and Germany, and together—across generations—we worked seamlessly to bring this event to life. It was truly successful and rewarding. A highlight of the weekend was our Gruppen team earning a 2nd Preis, and with great excitement, we look forward to dancing and competing in Germany in July of 2026. What a memory to cherish forever!
Beyond Gaufest, we continued to host our annual events and participated in many local and regional club affairs, strengthening our traditions and connections. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to all our members for their support throughout the year, and to our dedicated Board members and Chair people. I am especially grateful to those who work tirelessly with Soccer, Women’s Auxiliary our Dance Group, and our Children to ensure that our traditions remain strong and vibrant.
This year has shown me once again that I am truly blessed with such a wonderful club family!
I wish you a Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with happiness, good health, and good fortune. May the coming year bring continued success, joy, and cherished memories for us all.
Janet Fricker Malofiy
President
