President’s Message                           Updated on 01/12/11

 Liebe Mitglieder and Internet Friends!

The festive season is almost with us again and it is incredible how fast the time goes when you are involved in club activities. At our recent Association Ball we had a guest from the Austrian Embassy in Canberra. Mr Klaus Reisner who is head of consular affairs in Australia and New Zealand, was our Austrian National Day guest speaker. Thank you Klaus for making your time available and making the trip to Adelaide. It was certainly appreciated by all who attended this special event.

Fundraising Committee

At the end of 1991 the Fundraising Committee was formed to help finance the proposed extension of our Club Cellar. Out of their activities the Committee was able to establish a Coffee & Cake Stand at the Adelaide International Expo held during April each year. At that time, the Expo was a huge financial assistance to our Club. The cultural Groups of our club played a most important part in this venture, supplying one hour's worth of entertainment to the Expo during each day of its duration. Along with many other fundraising functions the success of this committee has been outstanding and has the distinction of providing the funds to help pay off our debts from the extensive cellar extensions.
When our opportunities for fundraising disappeared from the Expo a new door opened and since the year 2000 we  run our famous Austrian Grill at the annual Schützenfest organized by the South Australian German Association at Bonython Park.The Austrian Grill has been an outstanding success for the club due to the fantastic contribution made by our club members.
