From German Cultural Society, St. Louis
This Year we continued our tradition of show casing the talents of our
Jugendgruppe at our annual Rosenball. Our Jugendgruppe has grown quite
a bit in the last year and each of them put in hours of practice to
display their talents on the ball room dance floor. We had as many as
32 dancers on the floor at once. They were able to show us traditional
dances such as the Landler, the Waltz, and the popular Tango. This
annual performance also serves as a fundraiser for the Jugendgruppe.
As in years past, our raffle tickets were gone in minutes, with many
wonderful prizes donated from family and friends. The youth would like
to thank everyone who helped make the evening a success, from the Fest
Committee for their wonderful meal to their leaders who always spend
so much time working with them.
