Gauverband Nordamerika

If it feels like spring will never be here, here's an interim solution!  SGTV Edelweiss Buffalo invites you to their Frühlingsfest at the Buffalo Hofbräuhaus on March 28.  Details - see the flyer or their website at edelweissbuffalo.com.  

The Nominations Committee for the 2026 elections that will take place at the Delegates Meeting has put together information on how to nominate a candidate and how the election process will be handled.  March 1 is the deadline to get your nomination form in so that it is included in the meeting packet that will go out before the meeting.  Nominations can be submitted after that but may not be included in the packet.  The link below introduces the committee members and contains the link to the nomination form itself.  The Gauschriftführerin sent this information to the mailing list.

There's a new YouTube video available on the Gauverband's channel. Rick Michels shows us how to make Honigherzen, a delicious cookie that is especially popular at Christmas time.  The link to the channel and the recipe are available if you go to gauverband.com/resources/workshops. Yes, we're a little past Christmas but honey heart cookies are good for Valentine's Day and anytime you want a treat!

The Gauverband Nordamerika is saddened to hear of the passing of Lloyd Wevang of BGTV D'Lustigen Holzhacker Buam, of Chicago, Illinois on December 19, 2025.
