YGAC Membership
Our members are part of today's generation. You know, the one that puts in a lot of work time, trying to find the time to have a bit of fun without a lot of rigid formality.
We needed a club like ours -- One where we can experience the cultural fun of our parents and grandparents and get to know people just like us . . . .Let's commiserate, it's a great networking opportunity.
If you heard in your childhood home about : Lederhosen, Hummels, Weisswurst, "Ach du Lieber", "Mein Gott im Himmel", Schnapps, Jaegermeister, Apfle Strudel, or dirndl . . .then you need to hang with us!!!
If you happen to enjoy wearing Lederhose and Dirndls then you need to check out "DHG-PVV.ORG" as well.
