* Please note number of children and adults so Nikolaus can have enough treats for all of the good children!
The meal will be a buffet this year and will include Hungarian Goulash Soup, Crispy Chicken Schnitzel, Homemade Mushroom Sauce, Red Cabbage, Bavarian Sauerkraut, Spatzle, and Mashed Potatoes. Apfelstrudel, Coffee, Lemonade and Water will be served.
There will be lots of activities, crafts and games for kids, a traditional goodie bag for the good kids and a nice switch for the naughty!
We look forward to seeing you for an evening of good food and lively fellowship!

History:
The 6th of December is St. Nikolaus Day in Germany. It starts the night before, when kids shine their boots and put them in front of their bedroom doors. According to folklore, St. Nikolaus will appear overnight and put little gifts into their boots if they have been ‘good’ throughout the year. ‘Bad’ kids will only receive a bunch of twigs (birch).
