Wilkommen und Prost! Join your Nordic Ski Club friends on Saturday, October 1, 2016 5 pm at the Bavarian Bierhaus, 700 Lexington Blvd., Glendale, to celebrate Octoberfest. Admission is $5.00 at the door. Tickets can be purchased for $4.00 in advance by going to the Bavarian Bierhaus.

Join us as we celebrate the oldest and most authentic Bavarian Oktoberfest in the Midwest right here in Glendale, Wisconsin. Oktoberfest is modeled just like the one held in Munich, Germany. Continuous entertainment includes traditional German brass bands, Schuhplatter folk dancing, singing, yodeling, sing-alongs and dancing for everyone.

Delicious and authentic German food is available at Oktoberfest. Dinners of broiled chicken, Oktoberfest bratwurst or spanferkel (young pig spit roasted over an open pit), include potato salad, coleslaw and bread. Rollbraten (sliced pork roast on a Kaiser roll), hot dogs, pretzels and sweet roasted almonds are available. Desserts include fruit strudel, tortes and assorted homemade cakes. Get in line early for your Bienenstich or "Bee sting” cake. Of course there's plenty of beer on tap - imported and domestic - as well as other drinks. There are traditional German imported gifts and souvenirs sold at the park as well. The main festivities take place in the Bavarian Fest Garten - an Alpine style pavilion equipped with weather curtains on the open sides. Check it out at thebavarianbierhaus.com. Click on the Octoberfest link in the upper right corner for details, pictures, etc.

Two tables have been reserved for us in the covered Octoberfest pavilion, so we can enjoy the festivities regardless of the weather. We must occupy the tables by 6 pm. For those who plan to attend, please e-mail Cathy Ward at cward4@att.net so a count of the number attending is obtained.
