For the last few years Gauverband Nordamerika has joined the Allgäuer Gauverband in the tradition of ringing in the new year with cow bells (rather than shooting off fireworks). It was a project started by their 1er Gauvorplattler Christoph Zweng. They call it Allgäu Schealat. For the last two years we put together a video that we shared with them. A link to last year’s video is below.
