Schwaben Club 78th
Anniversary Forwarded From Kitchener Donauschwaben Katelyn Borch
Mary and Jake Adam are 50-year Schwaben Club members, surrounded by their family On Saturday February 22nd, 2009, the Schwaben Club celebrated its 78th anniversary. The Golden Keys provided excellent entertainment that kept everyone on the dance floor all night. The food was delicious, and included two kinds of salad, chicken schnitzel, roast beef and hazelnut torte. The Schwaben Dancers enjoyed celebrating with everyone. Our whole dance group came out, and the dance floor was packed for our performance.
We performed our new rope dance "Gebundene Liebe" choreographed by our teacher Peter Speckner. It has been a year in the making, and wouldn’t have been possible without the custom-made ropes constructed by Mennonite harness makers and their 100 year old hand-cranked sewing machine.
The Kindergruppe performed a new dance as well, and did an excellent job. The Donau Dancers’ performace was wonderful. The dance groups would like to congratulate the Club for its years of accomplishments and for such a successful and wonderful evening!

Just a small note: The Schwaben Dancers are collecting Zehrs tapes. If you are able to contribute any Zehrs tapes, we would really appreciate it. Please drop them off in the office. Thanks!
