President’s Message
Dear members, friends, and sponsors,
As part of our ongoing efforts to improve Camp Neustadt, the Camp
Improvement Committee did a walk around on September
25th. This was a follow up to a walk around completed earlier this
summer, as well as one completed in 2015.
The Committee includes Mike Jackman, Nancy Buchheim, and
myself.
Infractions include grass not being cut, doors, fridges or other
materials residing on the property, peeling paint, roof tarps,
etc. Campers are reminded to keep their spot tidy and well
maintained. Those campers that previously received letters this
summer, and again in the fall will have until October 15th to resolve
their infraction, or their license to renew may not be renewed in
2017.
The German Society is promoting Camp Neustadt as a well
maintained, family friendly summer camp. We have spent a
considerable amount this year on road repairs, washroom repairs,
painting the children’s play structures and so on. As a camper,
please do your part in keeping the camp at the high standard it
deserves to be.
Thank you,
Gary R. Rossol, CPA, CMA

Band News
October is our busiest
month of the year with
Oktoberfests in Kenora
on October 1 and at the
Club on the 15th.
Active living centres are
also keeping us
busy: Sturgeon 2 on Sept
29, Stirling House on Oct
6, River Ridge on Oct 20
and Rivewood on Oct
27. It seems that people
like Oktoberfests!
This will be a concert to celebrate our upcoming season and we are calling
it a
“Autumn carries
more gold in its
pocket than all the
other seasons”
Jim Bishop
Our busy season is approaching again, and we have several concerts lined
up. They will be capped off by our trip to Calgary for the Prairie
Sängerbund concert in May, which will be its last concert because all the
choirs are slowing down, with the original members aging out. It has been
a great run and a wonderful way to keep our German songs alive here in
Canada. It will be a bitter-sweet ending because we will be saying goodbye to people who have shared many happy moments, on stage and off,
with us.
More news next month!

Camp Neustadt News
Hello Campers,
As we approach the end of the season, please ensure that
your water valves to your cabins are shut off as part of your
cabin shutdown. This will help us with starting up the water
system in 2017. I am hopeful that the water will remain on
until after Thanksgiving weekend. However, if the weather
cools we may have to shut-down earlier. I will provide as
much notice as possible.
Seniorengruppe
Liebe Senioren!
Im Oktober treffen wir uns zwei Mal im Schanklokal
um 13 Uhr: Mittwoch, den 12. Und 26. Das sind
garantiert die letzten Treffen ohne Schnee in diesem
Jahr.
Helga Stanik – Präsidentin
The Camp Improvement Committee did another walk-around
of the camp on September 25. Unfortunately some campers
have not taken action regarding the upkeep and maintenance
of their sites, but I would like to thank those campers that
received letters earlier this year and have taken action. Your
efforts are noticed and appreciated.
Please be advised that the camping fees at Camp Neustadt
will be increasing for 2017. Lot Fees will be increasing by
$50. As well Holding Tank Fees, for those without a holding
tank, will be increased by $125. For background, the last
increase in Lot Fees was 2013. We have had increases in our
Hydro rates and water testing fees for the past few years and
these will continue to increase. As well, our operating costs
are increasing and we are looking at further improvements in
the condition of the camp. The thinking is that smaller
increases each year are better than larger increases every
few years. This allows the GSW to better manage funding
from year to year. In comparison to other camps close by
Camp Neustadt still has significantly lower lot fees.
Thanks Everyone,
Mike Jackman
Camp Chair
