We danced the chicken, ate German sausage, sauerkraut and brochin, said club member Michael Garcia. Garcia also said that a fascing party, a type of costume party, was held at a club members house. Fray Ewton, German club sponsor, believed that while her students learned more about the German language in class, club outings taught them more about the culture. The club's biggest goal was to go to Sacramento, New Mexico for a weekend, and immerse themselves in the German language and culture. They reached their goal by selling advent calendars and using the proceeds to fund the trip. Qouvid Ups Round Ups 107
