WHERE FUN MEETS GEMÜTLICHKEIT
Share German American culture with the community. St. Nikolaus Day is a traditional German Holiday to start off the Advent season. St. Nikolaus will bring gifts to children and put them in their shoes which are left either on the steps or by the fireplace. Please bring a donation of children’s shoes for the needy!
