Quiz Night very successful


Whoever missed it, missed a good one. The Quiz Night was a highlight. Quite a few members were present with their families as well. As the proverbial Fish and Chips arrived, the fun began in ernest.


Our Cook and the Regiment should get our special thanks.

Full of Perch and energy, the difficult part began with 64 Questions (The $64 Question—NBC radio, September 10, 1950-June 1, 1952???) that were worth 70 points.

If you knew how many legs a scorpion has or Shakespeare's longest play, you had a good chance of victory. Tough nuts of questions in common themes but still not too heavy on German or British culture as to be fair to all. Just how steep the climb was is reflected in the winning score of 42, 60% correct. Try that at school and hope to pass! 

There must be some more members out there who can top 60%. Who will come next year to challenge the "Vantastik Vour" who have won for the last 3 of 4 years? This wicked "WKD" team awaits your challenge!

Grillparty in retrospect


The annual grill party was a fine success. A good mix of members in both languages, and the food was tasty. 

Those who wished got a tour of the school and others were able to win some prizes in the raffle. (Some won more, but resigned their win to others. Gentlepeople, for certain!)

The only thing I can think of to make it more perfect would be some kind of "game" to get both sides interacting. Any suggestions?>Go to the "Discussion" page and offer them to us.

Race Night

The Race Night was a big success and a lot of fun. We were able to bet on horses, dogs, and even camels!



Some were very successful winners,



others only gathered betting slips...



Certainly a highlight for the German Side of the house was the dinner with "Steak and Kidney Pie" Some only found out afterward what had been served. A little surprise is always good amoung friends.
