German Club Social

Members and their families are invited to come to Godfather's Pizza at 6pm on Saturday February 20th for an evening social.  The club will pay for the food and sodas; members will be responsible for their own alcoholic beverages, should they choose to partake.

We hope to see you there!

Frohes neues Jahr!!

It's a new year, and we at the Rushmore German Club are looking forward to another great year of fun and friendship!

We'll be having a General Membership meeting this Saturday, January 16th at 7:30 pm at B&L Bagels on Main St.  You should be receiving an agenda in your mailbox shortly, or if you have your email on file with us, you should already have it.  This is a particularly important meeting, since we'll be calling for volunteers for the various committees that assist the Club, as well as go over the items brought forth by the Board Officers.  We hope to see you there!

Remembering the Fall of the Wall

The Rushmore German Club would be remiss if we didn't mention the 20th anniversary of the Berlin Wall coming down.

Here is a collection of stories and links that depict the Wall's impact then and now.
