The Winnipeg Skat Club
A year went by so quickly, and here we are again, holding
our annual skat tournament - but with a twist:
For the first time we will be hosting our tournament one
week after the long July weekend namely, on Saturday the 9. and Sunday the 10. July at the Schanklokal of our Society. There will be two
warm-up periods on Friday (8. July), starting at 7 p.m.
And, of course, we would like to see as many of you as possible.
Gut Blatt!
Egon Stanik - Vice President
Der Treue Husar
Hello Members,
We have been very busy planning for our conference in January 2017.
We are selling honey from the John Russell Honey Company for $6 per 375
gram jar. So many flavors you won't find at your local store. Orders have to be
in by July 17th 2016.
We are also accepting ads to be placed in our conference program. If you are
interested in placing an ad please contact Madeleine or myself.
We are also accepting donations towards the conference. We
would like to thank Christa Neuendorff for her generous donation.
Keep looking for updates.

President’s Message
Dear members, friends and sponsors,
The Euro Cup 2016 games have been well attended at the
club when Germany has played. Let's continue to support
'Die Mannschaft' as they continue their quest to be Europe's best soccer team during this sporting event.
If you're in town during the second week of August, please
come and attend the German Pavilion during Folklorama.
The theme this year is 'A Tour Of Germany', and will have
songs and dances from different regions of the country.

Pub / Schanklokal
Dear Members and Friends,
Summer is in full swing and things are slower in the Pub.
We hope you enjoy the weather and activities that you enjoy,
but do not forget to drop by now and then to support the
Pub/Club. Please check the calendar for times we will be
open/closed during July and August. Of course we will be
open to meet your Soccer viewing needs. As we are not sure of dates and times of
games you may want to see, be sure to check out the website and/or contact Michael Kasimow to find out how Germany is doing and when you will be able to
drop in for a game.
You will notice in the July/August Calendar that we will be closed for a large
part of the month of August. Summertime is a slow time and we would like to
take the time to clean up after Folklorama (always a big task) and possibly do
some much needed small renovations. We have a summer student to help out,
but any help that you can give would be very much appreciated. Keep an eye on
the schedule and call the Pub to leave a message for us. We will return your call
as soon as we are able. The office will also be closed for much of this time as well.
We will then be open again for Schnitzel Friday on August the 26th. Do not forget to make reservations. During the last Schnitzel Friday we had 2 patrons who
needed Gluten Free options. We were able to accommodate them, so feel free to
let us know ahead of time so that we may be able to accommodate your special
dietary needs if at all possible.
The Skat Group and Seniors will resume their weekly meetings on August 31st.
Enjoy your summer holidays and see you when you are able
to make it in for a meal or a drink and hope you can make
it to Folklorama.
Madeleine Kunzler– Pub Chair
Our new GSW Family Favourites Cook Book will be available for purchase at Folklarama for $14.00 each.
Thanks to all for your recipes. I greatly appreciate the effort done for
this project.
Coming up in November is our Christmas Craft Sale, so get your
crafts ready! It should be fun and exciting and something new for the
club.
Have a great safe summer!

Hello Members,
I would greatly appreciate more volunteers to give a hand with all the
work that needs to be done in and around the Clubhouse, we have a
membership of 300 plus (500 plus, taking into account the spouses of
members) and only one person who regularly gives a hand in all the
work that needs to be done; thanks again Karl for all the help!
I hear many complaints from Members about various issues such as
Pub pricing being too high (this is not my area), it is too hot or too
cold, too loud or not loud enough, this or that is broken. I do need to
know if things are out of order, however, a helping hand in some of the
repair work would be much appreciated.
There have been some technical issues with showing the Euro Cup
Games in the pub, especially with the sound, we have been working on
fixing them. We also changed the location of our Projector to get a better picture; it is better but still needs more tinkering.
These are some of the reasons I keep asking for help, so I can work on
other projects, of which there are plenty.
