The Historical Society’s mission is, in part “to help enrich the life of our community by promoting historical preservation”. The community responded by buying all the seats to Oktoberfest again this year.
Other members of the society volunteered to decorate the barn, buy the fixin’s, cook the dinner, and clean up afterwards.
Music sheets were passed out so everyone could sing along to the traditional German music played by the band. Below an obvious non-smoker.
Another tradition at this gathering is the Stumpf fiddle competition. Six well-oiled participants dance around the floor abusing the Stump fiddle while the band plays a rousing tune.
Fiddler number 4 came to his senses and went back to his table.
Proceeds raised at Oktoberfest will be used to fund the society’s mission.
