Gauzeitung Deadline: February 1

What have you been doing to keep the bonds of friendship and camaraderie strong in your Verein?  What special occasions are worthy of a little blurb in the Gauzeitung -- weddings, births, major anniversaries and birthdays, retirements?  How about a picture or two from a past event that would be fun for others to see?  Even with no recent events to write about, there's still plenty of ways we can share our love of dance and heritage. Send your articles and pictures to me at Gauzeitung@yahoo.com.
