By Schenay Schank

Hope that everyone had a great summer! Club Loreley’s 70th year continues to be very successful…

A hot and sunny summer day greeted attendees at our annual Sommerfest on Sunday August 10th, 2025. Bonnie kept things lively with great music and Angelika at the bar, kept us hydrated. All ages enjoyed kiddie pool fishing, toys and lots of bubbles. Many thanks to ALL the Volunteer Members that prepared and sold the great food available that day and helped set up and take down the canopies, tables, chairs and décor in the yard. As always, is always a combination of the hard work of volunteers and the attendance of members and guests that make an event successful. Thank you to all!

The sounds of Bierfest Musik kept us entertained and had families dancing on Saturday September 13th, 2025, at our Oktoberfest Biergarten and our Dinner and Dance on September 27th. Great turn out for both days! Martin put the keg holding participants through their paces at the Biergarten! Congrats to repeat winners, Tammy and Matt! Thanks to Premier Brands for the Ceremonial Kegs for both days.

The Club will be full of laughs on Saturday October 18th, 2025, so please get your tickets to our Yuk Yuk’s Comedy Night Dinner and Show. Once again, your Club Loreley Board has chosen three very funny comedians for this event! It’s always a full house for this event so get you tickets ASAP... don’t delay.

We hope to see you on Sunday October 26th, 2025, is the date of our Semi-Annual General Meeting. Start time is 2:00pm.
