Tausend Jahre Frieden

Fliege weiße Taube, bring Frieden in die Welt

Und fliege zu den Menschen denen er noch fehlt

    Lass Dich nicht beirren, wenn man Dich bedroht
    Denn du bringst Frieden und besiegst den Tod.

    Tausend Jahre Frieden wunderbarer Traum
    Doch was wir nicht träumen, das erfüllt sich kaum
    Frieden ohne Ende fängt im Herzen an
    Jeder Mensch soll wissen dass auch er es kann.

    Fliege weiße Taube, es ist noch nicht zu spät
    Die Menschen wollen Frieden der nie zu Ende geht
    Deine starken Flügeln, sind voll Zauberkraft
    Friedensarme schwingen, weil Du es hast geschaft.

Presidents Message:

                                            The end of the first half of our event year is near, with the Picnic and two dances to enjoy before vacation.
                                   But what a time we had the last three months. Beginning with the Inaugural Ball, we had the Volunteer,
                                   Appreciation Dinner, Valentine Dance, then the German Entertainers and Heimatabend. I don’t
                                   know about you but one affair stood out, and that was the German Entertainers. The Board and all the
                                   volunteers put in a lot of time and effort to make an event better than the last one. Our club should be
                                   proud of our volunteers. Without them our club would not be as great as it is!
                                   Lately, I have noticed that the attendance is down at our dances. The choir noticed it too on Heimatabend.
                                   The Board will look for ways to remedy this. By the way, we were only 14 strong in the choir but we still
                                   sounded great due to the leadership of Ann Heise. The months of June, July and August are vacation
                                   time, and the Board is already planning for Sept., Oct., Nov. and Christmas.
                                   So, in closing, I say to all members: have a great summer with family and friends and when you hear
                                   music somewhere, “da lass Dich nieder böse Menschen kennen keine Lieder!”
                                   Stay healthy and keep on smiling, it doesn’t cost anything.
                                   Auf Wiedersehen, Klaus

A BIG Thank You to the Constitution Committee
& the Audit Committee for their hard work!
