Federweisser Fest 2018

Saturday’s Federweisser Fest was a big hit with the crowds who came to enjoy the good food, wine, music and company.

From all accounts, the Federweisser (young wine) fermented especially for Spielwelt by Alex McKay of Collector Wines, was absolutely delicious, and a great treat for connoisseurs of such things.

Folk had a huge variety of delicious Zwiebelkuchen to choose from, thanks to the many families who tried their hand at Oma Heidi, Tante Gertrude or Oma Internet’s favourite recipes.   (There was even enough for the event organisers to be able to take some home at the end – what a great way to reward our wonderful event organisers!)

Children enjoyed the playground and running around in the park, as well sampling the grape juice, German sausages and buns.

It was great to see so many families from our playgroups, GAP, Pfadfinder, as well as Deutsche Stammtisch members, and other community supporters.

The event raised $600, which is a terrific result – thank you everyone for your generosity and support.

Special thanks go to Gerda, Gerald, Uli, Chris and their families and team members for all the great organisation and work; and thanks to Richard and Friederike who helped with the BBQ, cleaning and serving on the day.
