The Lancaster Liederkranz Presents Christkindlmarkt ...

NOTICE: 2022 Membership renewals are due by December 31. Renewal form available inside this issue (Page 13).

Greetings everyone,

We’re a few weeks past the Oktoberfest, but I want to start this article

by saying “THANK YOU!” to everyone that helped to make this year’s

fest an outstanding event. The Fest Organizing Committee members

worked hard for months before the fest to make sure the gears turned

smoothly after a year without any fests. The people on the committee

organize fest set-up, decorating, food prep, entrance gate, ticket sales,

food service, cakes and dessert, beer, liquor, bar service, trash, morn-

ing clean-up and putting everything away after its over. Hundreds of volunteers filled 500 slots to work during the

event and five thousand folks came to enjoy the Gemütlichkeit. I personally ran into several German people that

were in Lancaster County for their work; they said our fest was as authentic as any in their homeland. I want to call

out two jobs, not mentioned on the list above, that don’t get the recognition that they deserve. The number of people

needing a place to park is more than can fit on our property; thanks to the Honberger family for allowing us to use

their field across from the Club and to the parking committee for the time spent making sure that people who attend

have a place to park in a safe manner. I know directing traffic isn’t a lot of fun, but it is important and appreciated.

Another area that is of particular importance for making this Oktoberfest superb, is the number of activities we have

for the kinder. The Liederkranz is a family club and nothing showcases that fact better than the crafts and entertain-

ment offered at our fests for our youngest attendees. Right now, each of these guests is proud to show friends a

painted bird house; in a dozen years, they’ll be showing their new stein. Please think about volunteering in one of

these areas during Christkindlmarkt or next year.

Luckily, here at the Liederkranz the Gemütlichkeit doesn’t end with Oktoberfest. There is a lot more on the way

throughout the fall. Look at all of the things you can do:

October 29 -Come in costume to the Kompass Rose Halloween party. November 5 - Sing Ein Prosit with the Alpenländers. 13 -Thank a veteran at the Military Ball. 20 - Appreciate the performances of numerous other Schuhplattler groups visiting our Club Stiftungsfest. 24 - Party with Randy Z on Thanksgiving Eve. December 3 -Sing carols while on a hayride and then enjoy soup, cookies, glühwein and First Friday music from Maria and John. 4 -Enjoy an outstanding Choral Concert by the Liederkranz Chorus then dinner and Don Bitterlich’s music at the Club. 12 -Volunteer at the best Christkindlmarkt near or far. 17 -Dig out your Christmas attire for fun with Kompass Rose. 18 -Attend the Club’s Volunteer and Organizations Christmas Party. 31 -Say farewell to 2021 while sharing snacks with friends from 4 until 10 p.m.

President’s Message

Glenn Yanos, Club President

(Cont from page 1) The Schuplattler Kindergruppe is having their annual Holiday Greens and Poinsettia fund-

raiser. There is an order form to mail-in or drop off at the Club included in this newsletter and in links on emails

and the website. Please support their effort. Unfortunately, due to Covid, the cookie bakers have decided not to proceed with the annual holiday cookie sales

again this year. Cookie sales is a fundraising operation of the Club’s Internal Grants Fund that supports youth

activities at the Club. If anyone wants to help by giving a donation that will certainly be appreciated. The organ-

izers hope to begin fundraising again next year with the annual Easter candy egg sales. As you read through this newsletter, please look at the ads. These advertisements provide a significant amount

of income to the Club which defrays the cost of publishing and mailing the newsletter. Please support the busi-

nesses placing ads; as most of them are members and many are going through their own challenges. As I look back over the past year, it’s a bit difficult to remember the fact that the first several months of 2021

were filled with Covid rules. We weren’t sure if we could hold normal events or return to Club dining. As guide-

lines were loosened in May, the Officers, Trustees and others quickly focused on Sommerfest. After that, Parrot

Fest and Oktoberfest were back on. Liederkranz Cultural Groups are all back in action. Regular entertainment

and trivia are being held. Club dining has returned with outstanding German items and other selections. Days

for dining will be expanded in the upcoming weeks. Thank you to everyone in helping meet and overcome the

challenges. Please take time to fill out your renewal form, (included in this newsletter) or to use our new online renewal op-

tion, which you will find on the membership page of the website and in weekly emails. Don’t forget, renewals

made or picked up at the Club prior to December 31 will receive a complimentary beverage chip.

I wish everyone a wonderful autumn season and thank you for your support and membership in this terrific Club!

Reservation and Dining Information: - Dining - To better prepare our service & kitchen staff, we welcome all dining notice via our on-line TableAgent site found on the dining page of the website and in weekly emails. This is especially important for groups larger than 8 people. Occasionally we will use SignUp Genius for special event reservations.

MEMBERSHIP CARD POLICY - As a member, it is your responsibility to validate your membership

upon entrance to the club either to the Door Attendant or the Bartender on duty - even if you may be a

long time member. This practice, along with signing-in of nonmembers is not meant to be an annoy-

ance to you, but are requirements by the PA Liquor Control Board who govern our private club status.

Please be prepared to offer your membership card each time you enter whether or not you feel the

door attendant or bartender should know you. Our growing membership makes this practice even

more important. Guests should show a valid driver's license or state id when signing in.

Chorus Notes

Greetings to everyone! The Lancaster Liederkranz

Chorus has been back in full singing mode since the

beginning of September and performed at our Ok-

toberfest. It was wonderful to once again sing in front

of such a receptive crowd since we had been on hia-

tus for 18 months! Even though our vocal cords may

have been a bit “rusty”, singing the familiar fest songs

certainly brought back the camaraderie and spirit we

had BC (before Covid)! We are now in full rehearsals

to prepare for our upcoming holiday concert on Satur-

day, December 4, at 5 PM at Zion Lutheran Church in

Landisville. We are hoping once again that the Hobby

Chor will join us and that many of you will be in attendance to celebrate the

beginning of the Christmas season. This concert is always a great way to

start the season and to support our cultural singing groups. Please try to at-

tend.

Also during the month of December, the chorus will carol at Christkindlmarkt

on December 12 the afternoon. We just casually stroll around the area and

usually end up by the fire pit to sing traditional German Christmas carols.

Many new members have been inducted into the Liederkranz Club recently

and I hope that many of these new people will consider attending a chorus

rehearsal on a Wednesday night to see what we are all about. It is a great

way, not only to meet other club members, but a way to sing wonderful Ger-

man folk songs and other good choral repertoire. Singing together can unite

us and lift our souls and spirits! Just a reminder, especially to the new mem-

bers, that the chorus sells cookbooks with authentic German recipes from

many of our club members as a fundraiser, and are available behind the bar

for $10.00 a piece. Ask the friendly bartenders and they will be happy to sell

you one, two or three of them. They are wonderful as holiday gifts, and re-

member to buy one for yourself! All proceeds benefit the chorus! As always,

stay safe and be healthy. Have a wonderful upcoming holiday season!

Before we soared full force into the busy Oktoberfest season of practices and perfor-

mances, Alleweil Jung (AJ) members were graciously invited to an evening of Gemut-

lichkeit with a picnic and pool gathering at the homes of Margaret & Henry Kuester and

Carolyn & Matt Santos. What a blessing to see those who were early members, and some the founding

members of Alleweil Jung, at the gathering 20 years after the group’s inception including Maria Fornoff,

Inga & Klaus Brunnengraeber, Paul and Norma O’Donnell and our hosts Margaret and Henry. And a

potential future member was present as well! I am sure our VP/Dance Instructor Carolyn will have

members Ty and Jess’s little Josie, who just started walking, toddling with our group as soon as she can

stay up past 8:00 PM for our practices. From young to not so young – it was a fun evening. (If you were

anywhere in the vicinity of the pool, you were wet). AJ founders Doris and Less Blouin would be happy

to see their vision of being Forever Young (Alleweil Jung) continue through enjoyable group dancing with fun and laughter.

A thank you to AJ member CJ Martin and his team for carrying a cabinet full of our archives and music to the upper floor. The

key was on the West Shore and the rains were not waiting for it to be transported to Lancaster. We are fortunate to still have our

memories through photos and our recorded music to perform at Oktoberfest. As I thank so many of the cultural group members, trustees and LLK members who contributed to the success of Oktoberfest, I

would also like to thank our group for the tremendous amount of volunteer hours. It seemed that everywhere I turned, an AJ

member was volunteering one of many shifts. Carolyn was recognized at the recent membership meeting for her contribution

that helps to set our Oktoberfest apart from others – the Kinder Crafts. She provides education along with two full days of crafts

and this year initiated the first annual poster contest. All of the volunteering was in addition to performing and teaching some par-

ticipation dances to attendees. AJ will have performed more weekends than not during the month of October. We are fortunate to work with the Alpenlaenders

as they invite us to join them in some of their performances. AJ performed with this band for two shows for the Pennsylvania Re-

naissance Fair’s Oktoberfest themed weekend. We enjoy branching out with these opportunities to demonstrate the rich heritage

of the German Culture through dance. After this writing, we will have also performed two more events with the Alpenlaenders:

The Knights of Columbus Oktoberfest in West Grove, PA as well as an Oktoberfest in Wilmington Delaware. And of course, what is Christmas season without Christkindlmarkt! AJ will be contributing to the Linglestown event (Saturday De-

cember 11) by performing two shows, and the Lancaster Liederkranz (Sunday December 12) event with performances and

wares. Look for our stand with Kissing Balls made from fresh greens. As we continue with our 20

th year celebration of Alleweil Jung, a thank you to George Grab, our very own Lancaster Liederkranz

club photographer, for taking time to share his talent by taking a group photo which he beautifully mated and framed. Below, are

our current members of Alleweil Jung. I am very proud of this group and very much treasure our friendships.

Golf Outing (our 21st) on Friday, August 20, 2021 at the Four Seasons Golf Course in

Landisville, PA. After a rainy morning, the skies cleared just in advance of tee time, and 124

players enjoyed a great day of golf followed by our traditional steak dinner at the Lan-

caster Liederkranz Pavilion. I would like to thank all the Hobby Chor golf committee mem-

bers and volunteers who contributed to make this another successful event. Proceeds from

our outing will once again go to support our charitable activities including our sponsorship

of a scholarship for a high school senior (child or grandchild of a current Liederkranz mem-

ber) who is furthering his/her German studies, and to offset our performance and uniform ex-

penses. -Mike Braun

The Volunteers Behind the Scenes

Did you know that many club members show up to set-up, decorate, and prepare food days before a fest?

Last newsletter issue I did an article on food preparation before Sommerfest.

In this issue I would like to do an article on the volunteers that are here for set-up, decorating, beer and food prepa-

ration for Oktoberfest. Under the direction of John Blank, Jeff Munster, Bunky Perko, and Joe Eckenrode, over 65 member volunteers set

the stage for our Oktoberfest as well as tear down after the fest. Under the direction of Lisa Dymond, another 15 member volunteers provided all the decorations for the fest. Of course we can not leave out all the food and beer preparation under the direction of Matt Trout (see Matt’s arti-

cle page 4), Glenn Yanos, and Renate McEiheny before the fest. Yes, there are many, many volunteers for club functions every day. Some are out in the open and some behind the

scenes. Below are some of the many pictures taken by George Grab. Photo selection for this article are the fest

front end.

Due to printing limitations, this page is only in our online copy. John Northup, Newsletter Editor
