President’s Report! - XÜÇáà fàtwxÜ<br />
in ganz kurzer Rückblick auf die<br />
E Veranstaltungen der letzten zwei<br />
Monate: Wie nicht anders erwartet erwies<br />
sich der Silvesterball - genau wie<br />
vorhergesagt wurde als großer Erfolg.<br />
Eintrittskarten wurden nur bis zu einer<br />
gewissen Zahl verkauft, damit Jedermann<br />
ausreichend Bewegungsfreiheit hatte. Ein<br />
Willkommensgruß und ein Glas Sekt brachten<br />
unsere Mitglieder und Gäste sofort in die<br />
richtige Stimmung. Neben Hors d’oeuvres<br />
wurde zuerst ein komplettes <strong>Abend</strong>essen mit<br />
Salat und anschließend Kaffee und<br />
Schokolade serviert. Ein kaltes Buffet für alle<br />
folgte zwischen 22 und 23 Uhr. Die<br />
Evergreens sorgten für angenehme<br />
Tanzmusik und wie immer ging so ein<br />
herrlicher <strong>Abend</strong> zu schnell vorbei.<br />
Ich möchte mich hiermit bei Hannelore und<br />
Dieter Johle für die Geldspende an diesem<br />
<strong>Abend</strong> für unseren Klub bedanken. Auch Olf<br />
Rudolph gebührt ein Dankeschön für die<br />
erstklassigen Bilder von Silvester. (weiter auf<br />
Seite 5)<br />
Volume 2, Issue 2<br />
et us just reflect on the past events of<br />
L the last two months. As expected, our<br />
New Year’s Ball was a complete success. We<br />
only sold a certain amount of tickets to make<br />
it as comfortable as possible for everyone. A<br />
welcome with a glass of champagne to members<br />
and guests was the first step to bring<br />
everyone in that New Year’s spirit. The food<br />
consisted of hors d’oeuvres, followed by a<br />
full course dinner, coffee and chocolate for<br />
dessert and a cold buffet around 10:30 for<br />
everyone in attendance. The music by the<br />
‘Evergreens’ made sure the dance floor was<br />
always occupied with their selection of dance<br />
music. A beautiful evening enjoyed by everyone!<br />
I would like to thank our members Hannelore<br />
and Dieter Johle for their cash donation<br />
which was presented to me on that evening.<br />
Also our thanks to Olaf Rudolph for the<br />
wonderful pictures he took during the festivities<br />
- they may be seen on our website.<br />

Ja der Karneval Tanz, eine Tanzveranstaltung wie in<br />
früheren Jahren. Gäste von Karnevalsvereinen aus Ontario<br />
waren eingeladen; die Auszeichnungen an unseren Elferrat<br />
stellten einen der Höhepunkte dar. Die Euro Connection<br />
brachte mit Karnevalsmusik und später am <strong>Abend</strong> mit<br />
Tanzmusik den vollbesetzten Saal in Stimmung. Die<br />
Aufführungen unserer Tanzgruppen, von den Kleinsten bis<br />
zu den Senioren und die Einlagen der Gästetruppen waren<br />
eine Augenweide. Tom Henninger war der Ansager des<br />
<strong>Abend</strong>s; vor allem seine Erläuterungen auf Deutsch waren<br />
wirklich wieder Klasse. Worte sind manchmal schwer zu<br />
finden, um Holly Henninger und ihren Mithelfern der K.G.<br />
unsere Anerkennung auszusprechen. Mit viel Arbeit und<br />
Fleiß verbunden bereitete diese Gruppe für uns einen<br />
<strong>Abend</strong> vor, den wir noch lange in Erinnerung behalten<br />
werden und von dem wir auch noch oft genug sprechen<br />
werden. Was uns am meisten an diesem <strong>Abend</strong> auffiel,<br />
waren die vielen Kostüme. Fast 40% der Teilnehmer<br />
erschienen kostümiert und es war unheimlich schwer für<br />
den Wahlausschuss, die Gewinner zu ermitteln. Ein volles<br />
Haus, aber trotzdem vermissten wir einige der alten Garde;<br />
das kann aber im nächsten Jahr beim Karnevalstanz<br />
nachgeholt werden, ( Mehr über den Karneval im K.G.<br />
Bericht)<br />
Ein gut besuchter Valentines Tanz mit einer 14 köpfigen<br />
„Swing Kapelle“ und Sängerin Tanja Weiss war genug um<br />
die Verantwortlichen des <strong>Abend</strong>s zu überzeugen, es war<br />
wieder eine gelungene Veranstaltung. Die Küche wie<br />
immer, unter Leitung Chef Trevor’s mit seinen Angestellten<br />
sorgten für ein appetitliches <strong>Abend</strong>essen. Gerda und ihre<br />
Helfer gebührt ein besonderes Lob, nicht nur das<br />
Schmücken des Saales, sondern auch die einmalige Idee<br />
muss erwähnt werden. Wer immer an diesem <strong>Abend</strong> das<br />
Tanzen liebte, ein Genuss für Jedermann. Tom Pinto als<br />
Dirigent sorgte mit seiner Auswahl an Musik für die richtige<br />
Stimmung. (weiter>)<br />

Next, the Karneval dance. This was a dance which sure<br />
reminded us of the old times when people were there early in<br />
the evening just to claim a comfortable place to sit. A full<br />
house with many representatives of other Karneval groups<br />
from Ontario were present. One of the highlights was when<br />
our Elferrat marched in under the music of the Euro<br />
Connection. Performances by our own dancers, from the tots<br />
to the seniors, and from our guests were well appreciated by<br />
everyone in attendance. Tom Henninger, as master of<br />
ceremonies, did an excellent job as always; especially that<br />
part in German. Sometimes it is not so easy to find the right<br />
wording in explaining how much work it takes to present us<br />
with an evening like that. Holly Henninger and all her<br />
volunteers deserve our gratitude with their dedication to the<br />
K.G. <strong>Loreley</strong>. We, the board of directors, are well aware how<br />
much sacrifice and hard work it takes to organize such an<br />
event. When you see the results, it makes you very proud to<br />
be a member of such a glorious team. (More in K.G. report)<br />
A very well attended Valentine’s dance, and a 14 piece swing<br />
band with vocalist Tanya Weiss was enough reason to put a<br />
smile on everyone’s face that helped organize that dance. Of<br />
course an excellent dinner, prepared by chef Trevor and his<br />
staff was also appreciated. Here again, we have to praise<br />
Gerda and her helper who have done a terrific job with the<br />
decorating of our hall--what a marvelous idea! Also a delight<br />
for everyone who loves to dance, music from way back to our<br />
present time. Some of our guests were first-timers and really<br />
praised our club, and most of all, the friendly atmosphere. But<br />
then again, with our caliber of board members what else<br />
would you expect!<br />
At the last general meeting our by-laws were discussed. Times<br />
have changed over the years and we thought they should be<br />
updated. I arranged a meeting with our lawyer Josef<br />
Neubauer, and the following sections and paragraphs have<br />
been changed. (cont’d)<br />

Einige unserer Gäste waren zum erstenmal Anwesend und<br />
sehr begeistert von unserem Klub, vor allen Dingen die<br />
freundliche Atmosphere. Aber mit verantwortlichen Leuten im<br />
Vorstand, ist es auch nicht anders zu erwarten.<br />
Auf der Generalversammlung im letzten Jahr wurde über<br />
unsere Gesetze und Regelungen des Klubs gesprochen und<br />
auch erwähnt, dass Vieles sich geändert hatte und<br />
dementsprechend auch unsere Regeln veraltet sind. Ich habe<br />
daraufhin mit Josef Neubauer, unserem Rechtsanwalt, einen<br />
Termin vereinbart und ihm die Regeländerung vorgelegt. Hier<br />
nun die Änderungen in Bezug auf unseren Klub. ………<br />

I would urge every member to cut this part out of our paper<br />
and staple it to their copy of the by-laws. We could have<br />
printed new booklets but have refrained for the time being<br />
because of the expense.<br />
The last concern (I hope) we had from the health inspector<br />
in regards to our kitchen food counter was corrected with<br />
the help of Jakob Fischer and Joe Friedrich. The counter had<br />
to be covered from the outside for health reasons.<br />

Diese können Sie ausschneiden und im Gesetzbuch ( By- Law<br />
) anheften. Wir könnten uns auch für neugedruckte Bücher<br />
entscheiden, aber das würde zu hohe Unkosten bedeuten und<br />
lohnt sich im Moment nur wegen dieser diese Änderungen<br />
nicht.<br />
Auch wurde die (wie ich hoffe) letzte Beanstandung von der<br />
Inspektion ( Health Inspector ) mit Hilfe von Jakob Fischer<br />
und Joe Friedrich aus dem Weg geschafft. Die Speisetheke<br />
musste nach den Vorschriften des Gesundheitsamtes von der<br />
Außenseite geschützt werden. Ich glaube, dass nun wirklich<br />
alles in bester Ordnung ist und wir mit Zuversicht der<br />
nächsten Inspektion entgegensehen können. Auch gebührt<br />
den fleißigen Helfern der Schützengruppe eine wohlverdiente<br />
Pause, damit sie sich wieder mehr auf ihr Schießen<br />
konzentrieren können. Diese Hilfe der Truppe war wirklich<br />
einer der Gründe dafür, dass wir mit unseren Ausgaben so<br />
günstig davonkamen. Denn wer mit den heutigen<br />
Stundenlöhnen vertraut ist, ( und man braucht kein Genie zu<br />
sein um das auszurechnen ) weiß, dass wir eine Unmenge an<br />
Geld gespart haben. Ich hoffe weiterhin auf solche<br />
Unterstützung in der Zukunft, damit wir noch etliche Jahre<br />
mit Freude und Genuss unser Klubleben fortführen können.<br />
President’s Report Cont’d from pg. 7<br />
Unsere Hauptversammlung steht auch wieder vor der Tür,<br />
und zwar am 9. April. Man könnte wieder dieselben Worte<br />
gebrauchen wie in denvorhergehenden Jahren und jeden<br />
daran erinnern zu erscheinen, aber das sind immer nur<br />
Worte. In diesem Jahr wäre es wirklich angebracht und jeder<br />
sollte sich die Frage stellen, warum er an der Versammlung<br />
teilnehmen muss. Bisher lief alles so gut wie wir es uns<br />
wünschen, denken die meisten der Mitglieder. Sie sind sich<br />
aber nicht bewusst, das schwere Zeiten auf uns zukommen.<br />
Natürlich werden wir alle älter und die Energie der früheren<br />
Jahre hat nachgelassen. Das sollte aber kein Grund und keine<br />
Entschuldigung dafür sein, sich völlig zurückzuziehen.<br />
Beschäftigungen und Mitmachen ist einer der Gründe, damit<br />
man das Leben verlängert, Aufgeben und sich an nichts mehr<br />
Beteiligen ist der erste Schritt zum Untergang. Denkt an die<br />
schönen Stunden, die wir im Klub erlebt haben und weiterhin<br />
genießen werden! Um nur an die letzte Silvesterfeier zu<br />
erinnern - bis in die frühen Morgenstunden oder nach der<br />
Klubfeier noch privat weiterzufeiern - diese Zeiten sind vorbei.<br />
Stattdessen bevorzugen wir einen <strong>Abend</strong> mit gutem Essen,<br />
Tanz, angenehmer Unterhaltung am eigenen Tisch und mit<br />
anderen Leuten und Gästen. Eine Feier nach unserm<br />
Geschmack in unserer Zeit und so sollte es weiterhin bleiben.<br />
Ein weiterer Grund für mich, der Versammlung nicht fern zu<br />
bleiben und meine Meinung zum Ausdruck zu bringen, damit<br />
wir weiterhin einen Platz haben um schöne Stunden zu<br />
verbringen. (weiter>)<br />
I’m quite sure every concern has now been addressed and<br />
we are well prepared for the next inspection by the<br />
department. I must emphasize again how thankful we<br />
should be to the rifle club for all their work. With wages<br />
nowadays you not need to be a mathematician to figure out<br />
how much money they have saved us over time. Hopefully<br />
we can count on their help for the future, and still enjoy<br />
many of our activities at our club. You also deserve a well<br />
earned rest to concentrate more on your own activities as<br />
far as shooting is concerned.<br />
Our next general meeting is just around the corner--April 9 th .<br />
Again, I could use the same phrase as in previous years and<br />
remind everyone to be in attendance, but those are only<br />
words. Everyone should ask the question, why, and for what<br />
reason can I not be part of the meeting? Many of our<br />
members probably think, oh everything is fine, and we don’t<br />
need to worry, but think again, hard times are ahead of us.<br />
Naturally we all are getting older, and have lost a bit of our<br />
energy, but this should not be an excuse to refrain yourself<br />
from everything. Participation and involvement is one of the<br />
reasons to prolong your life span. To reduce your activities<br />
to a point of complete negligence, is the first step to<br />
everyone’s downfall. Just remember the good times we all<br />
shared at <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong> and hopefully will share for a long<br />
time to come. Our last New Year’s party comes to my mind.<br />
Not much like in earlier years when we celebrated to the<br />
wee hours and often went to a private party after that. No,<br />
this was a party with good food, dance, and plenty of<br />
conversation on your own table and somewhere else with<br />
many friends and guests. A party, just the way it should be<br />
in our time, and hopefully will continue. These are some of<br />
the reasons why we should all be in attendance at our<br />
general meeting, and be informed, and also have your own<br />
opinions expressed. We all have to do our share to expand<br />
the good times at <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>.<br />
Now to our events for the following month. It all starts on<br />
Saturday March 4 th with the Miss <strong>Loreley</strong> and Mini Miss<br />
Pageant. The K.G. <strong>Loreley</strong> and youth dancers will be in<br />
charge of that event (see flyer). On Saturday March 18 th , the<br />
<strong>Loreley</strong> singes have something different on their agenda. In<br />
addition to entertainment by a guest’s choir’s and their own<br />
group, they also have a band hired for dance music for that<br />
evening. For sure a night that will draw many members and<br />
guests. Then on April the 9 th , our general meeting with<br />
election of a new board. Note all skat players and guests:<br />
our spring prize skat on Saturday April 15 th at 11 a.m. Please<br />
submit your name to the list, and also pay your $25.00 fee<br />
to Wanda in the members’ lounge. (cont’d)<br />

Hier nun ganz kurz die Veranstaltungen für die nächsten Monate: Es<br />
beginnt am Samstag den 4. März mit der Wahl der Miss <strong>Loreley</strong> und<br />
Mini Miss, organisiert von der K.G.<strong>Loreley</strong> und Jugendtanzgruppe.<br />
(Siehe Reklame). Für Samstag, den 18 März (Salute To Spring) haben<br />
die <strong>Loreley</strong> Sänger sich etwas ganz anderes ausgedacht. Neben<br />
Gesangseinlagen der eigenen Chöre und der geladenen Gästen wurde<br />
auch eine Kapelle engagiert, die nach der Aufführung für Tanzmusik<br />
sorgt. Ein <strong>Abend</strong>, der bestimmt viele unserer Mitglieder anzieht. Am 9.<br />
April findet unsere Hauptversammlung mit Neuwahlen statt, wie schon<br />
im Bericht erwähnt. Für alle Skatspieler - auch Gäste sind eingeladen -<br />
der große Preisskat am Samstag, den 15. April um 11Uhr morgens.<br />
Bitte in der Liste eintragen in der Members Lounge und auch sofort<br />
$25.00 bei Wanda, unserer Barfrau, hinterlegen. Kinorama am<br />
Samstag, den 16. April, (siehe Reklame). Dann am Samstag, den 22.<br />
April der große <strong>Heimat</strong>abend, veranstaltet von den <strong>Heimat</strong>sängern mit<br />
Christel Petrowski und Peter Stenz als Veranstalter. Ein <strong>Abend</strong>, der<br />
nicht nur unsere Mitglieder anzieht, sondern auch viele Gäste von<br />
auswärts werden erscheinen. Eine Veranstaltung, die man auf keinen<br />
Fall verpassen darf.<br />
Vielleicht wäre es angebracht, falls die Zeitung mit Verspätung<br />
erscheint, die nächsten Veranstaltungen in der ersten Maiwoche<br />
bekannt zu geben. Am 6. Mai, der Rummage und Bake Sale der<br />
Loreleley Singer von 9Uhr morgens bis 15 Uhr. Am selben <strong>Abend</strong> der<br />
Wohltätigkeitstanz der K. G. <strong>Loreley</strong> und Jugendtänzer, mit der Euro<br />
Connection als Kapelle, (siehe Reklame). Am nächsten Tag, dem 7.<br />
Mai, der große und berühmte Muttertagsbrunch. Bitte früh genug in<br />
der Members Lounge nach Eintrittskarten fragen! Es wäre angebracht<br />
wieder zu erwähnen, sich diese Daten zu merken, da unsere Zeitung<br />
nur alle zwei Monate erscheint!<br />
Auf unserer Vorstandssitzung am 1. Februar wurden wir freudig<br />
überrascht durch Irene Lipski. Im Auftrag von Monika Mehler und der<br />
Frauengruppe überreichte Irene uns einen Scheck über $500.00 für<br />
den Klub <strong>Loreley</strong>. Dieser wurde mit Freuden von unserem<br />
Schatzmeister entgegengenommen und unser Dank geht an diese<br />
wundervolle Truppe.<br />
Eine traurige Nachricht, in der Nacht von Mittwoch auf Donnerstag<br />
verstarb unser letzter Chef der <strong>Loreley</strong> Küche, Wojciech Gniewek an<br />
einem Herzschlag. Dieses war natürlich ein schwerer Schlag für Alle,<br />
Ein Mann, der nur seine Familie und Freunde kannte, der sein Fach wie<br />
kein Anderer verstand. Wojciech und seine Familie können mit Stolz<br />
behaupten, das sie Anteil hatten, um <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong> wieder auf die Höhe<br />
zu bringen. Er wird von uns Allen vermisst, unser Beileid der Familie<br />
Gniewek vom <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>.<br />
Bis zur nächsten Ausgabe und ich hoffe, Sie alle bei der<br />
Hauptversammlung zu sehen,<br />
mit besten Grüßen,<br />

President’s Report Cont’d from pg. 8<br />
Kinorama again on Sunday April 16 th (see flyer).<br />
One of our biggest events--“<strong>Heimat</strong>abend”—is on<br />
Saturday April 22th with host, Christel Petrowski<br />
and Peter Stenz. This is an evening that will see<br />
many of our members and guests from out of<br />
town. It should not be missed under any<br />
circumstance.<br />
It might be wise to mention the events for the first<br />
week in May in case the paper does not arrive in<br />
time. On May 6 th the <strong>Loreley</strong> singers’ “rummage<br />
and bake sale” from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.. On that<br />
evening, the <strong>Loreley</strong> Youth Dancers will be holding<br />
their benefit dance with the “Euro Connection” as<br />
band. By being in attendance, we all show our<br />
support for that wonderful group (see flyer). The<br />
next day, May 7 th , <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>’s famous Mothers’<br />
Day brunch. Please get your tickets early in our<br />
Members’ Lounge.<br />
Again, it would be wise to remember those dates<br />
and mark them down, due to the fact our paper will<br />
only appear every two months.<br />
We, the board were pleasantly surprised by a visit<br />
from Irene Lipski at our Board meeting on Feb. 1 st .<br />
She presented us on behalf of Monika Mehler and<br />
the Lady’s auxiliary with a check of $500.00 for<br />
<strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>. Needless to say our treasurer-without<br />
hesitation--accepted this generous<br />
donation. Our thanks to Monika and the wonderful<br />
ladies.<br />
Finally, a sad note. Our former chef, Wojciech<br />
Gniewek, has passed away this week due to a heart<br />
attack. This was truly shocking news to me. Chef<br />
Wojciech was a kind, caring, hard working family<br />
man and an expert in his field. He provided our<br />
club with seamless, memorable, and exquisite<br />
cuisine. He was a friend to many of us, and he will<br />
be missed. On behalf of our club I would like to<br />
extend our condolences to his family and friends.<br />
That concludes my report for this edition. See all of<br />
you at the general meeting, with the best to you,<br />

“Wiarton Willie” did not see his shadow on February 2nd, and as we all know,<br />
that promises an early spring. We can only hope he is right.<br />
In any case, the “<strong>Loreley</strong> Singers” will bring Spring to our club on Saturday<br />
March 18th with the annual “Salute to Spring Concert”. The visiting Choirs<br />
will be: the “Lyra Choir” from London, the “Harmonie Choir” from Toronto,<br />
and maybe the “Hansa Choir” from Brampton and the “Harfentöne Choir”<br />
from Toronto.<br />
Never mind “Wiarton Willie”, when all these choirs let their voices be heard,<br />
sunshine will be in our hearts and flowers will be blooming! And we can then<br />
say along with Eduard Mörike… “Frühling läßt sein blaues Band wieder flat-<br />
Before all this takes place however, the “<strong>Loreley</strong> Singers” will be visiting with the “Hansa Choir” in Brampton on<br />
March 4 th to celebrate their Springfest. And that should be lots of fun too. On April 1st the Singers are on the road<br />
again. This time they will be visiting the “Transylvanian Choir” in Kitchener.<br />
By now all of you have read our newspaper and you all know, that we celebrated “Valentine’s Day” at our <strong>Club</strong> on<br />
February 11 th . Yours truly with best pal Joe attended. And I must say, once again it was another glorious evening at<br />
our club. The big hall was wonderfully decorated, every lady was welcomed with a sweet yellow rose, the food was<br />
very good and so tasteful, and the band… There is nothing nicer than to dance to the music of a “Big Band Swing<br />
Orchestra”!!!! At least our generation feels that way. And even the dance floor was nice and “danceable”. What a<br />
wonderful evening to beat the winter blaaaahs…<br />
And here is a reminder for all the “<strong>Loreley</strong> Singers”. Monday, March 6th will be the annual Membership meeting<br />
from 3.30 p.m to 5.00p.m. And as you all know, we have to vote for a new executive!! So please do not forget!!!!<br />
Mark this date on your calendar.<br />
And that is that for today………<br />
Don’t forget to sing and keep a happy smile.<br />

ith the passing of February, we’re striving forward to spring with big steps. So far we’ve been<br />
W spoiled all winter with extremely mild weather and with very little snow. Now whether this is<br />
good or bad for the environment I can’t tell, but I hope that March won’t surprise us with a kick in the<br />
butt, by setting us in a deep freeze.<br />
As you all know, this is going to be the last news letter before the club’s ‘<strong>Heimat</strong>abend’ on April 22nd;<br />
and therefore it will also be the last chance for anyone who wants to be on the performer list to inform<br />
us as soon as possible about their intention. Don’t wait up to the last minute if you decide to be part of<br />
the program. Once the program is done it is a heck of a job to reschedule everything over again.<br />
In case you tell someone else to get in contact with us, please give us that person’s phone number too, so that I can get in<br />
contact personally with that particular person at a later time. Believe me I spend many hours on the internet just searching<br />
for the right phone numbers of people who’ve signed up.<br />
We have already sent flyers out to the community, in malls and to our friends. Now it is up to all members, their families and<br />
friends the spread the word. We hope that we can count on each and everyone again this year to support this wonderful tradition<br />
of our heritage. We put is a lot of hard work and dedication into this project and hope that it will be profitable for the<br />
club and enjoyable for our audience.<br />
Once again we will have some wonderful performers this year who will spend their time and energy to entertain you. Just<br />
think about it, all this is free of charge to anyone attending the <strong>Heimat</strong>abend. Now where else in town can you find such bargain?<br />
Only in our <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>, because we‘re a big family, and families are supposed to support each other!<br />
To make this evening even more exciting there will be many wonderful prizes just waiting to be won at our draw; and for<br />
your convenience this year we’ll sell only single colour tickets, no more multiple colours. I believe that this will speed up the<br />
whole process of our raffle. We noticed that many of our guests had a hard time distinguishing between pink, orange or<br />
beige, especially when the light was turned down. The single colour tickets will help to solve this problem. We also intend to<br />
mark the prizes with numbers, and hope that this too will speed up the whole procedure.<br />
On January 21st our singers visited and performed at <strong>Club</strong> Treff in Cobourg and we expect some of their members to visit us<br />
too on April 22nd.<br />
Many of us attended Ilse Eilert’s funeral on January 23rd. Ilse was a very special and dear friend of mine; she also was a club<br />
member and a member of the Ladies Auxiliary. She definitely will be missed by many of us.<br />
A donation from us <strong>Heimat</strong>sänger in the amount of $100.00 was given to the club for a new printer cartridge.<br />
The following heart-warming story was given to me by one of our members. This story speaks for itself; it actually brought<br />
tears to my eyes when I read it... Today I’d like to share this story with you on the next page of my report. Hope to see you<br />
all on <strong>Heimat</strong>abend! (cont’d >>)<br />

A store owner was tacking a sign above his door that read, ” Puppies for sale”.<br />
The sign had a way of attracting children. Soon a little boy appeared at the sign and asked, “How much<br />
are you gonna sell those puppies for?”<br />
The store owner replied, “Anywhere from $30-$50. The boy reached into his pocket and pulled out<br />
some change. “ I have $2,37, can I look at them ?”<br />
The store owner smiled and whistled. Out of his kennel came a dog named Lady, running down the<br />
aisle of his store followed by five little puppies. One puppy was lagging considerably behind. Immediately<br />
the little boy singled out the lagging, limping puppy. He asked,” What’s wrong with this little<br />
dog?” The man explained that when the puppy was born the Vet said that this puppy had a bad hip<br />
socket and would limp for the rest of his life.<br />
The little boy got really exited and said,” That’s the puppy I want to buy!”<br />
The man replied,“ No, you don’t want to buy this little dog. If you really want him I’ll give him to you.”<br />
The little boy got upset. He looked straight into the man’s eyes and said,” I don’t want you to give him<br />
to me. He is worth every bit as much as the other dogs and I’ll pay the full price. In fact I will give you<br />
$2,37 now and 50cents every month until I have him paid for.”<br />
The man countered, “You really don’t want to buy this puppy son. He is never gonna be able to run,<br />
jump and play like other puppies.” The little boy reached down and rolled up his pant leg to reveal a<br />
badly twisted left leg supported by a big metal brace. He looked up to the man and said,” Well, I don’t<br />
run so well myself and the little puppy will need someone who understands.”<br />
The man was now biting his bottom lip. Tears welled up in his eyes… Hi smiled and said,” Son, I hope<br />
and pray that each and everyone of these puppies will have an owner such as you.”<br />
In life it doesn’t matter who you are,<br />
but where someone appreciates you<br />
for what you are,<br />
accepts you and loves you<br />
unconditionally.<br />
A friend is one who walks in<br />
when the rest of the world<br />
walks away!<br />
This I a wonderful story and I hope all of us have learnt a little bit from it. Until next time take care,<br />
and don’t forget to smile.<br />

iebe Mitglieder! L<br />
Nun ist wieder ein Jahr vorbei. Hoffe es geht Ihnen gut und Sie<br />
haben die Feiertage im Kreise ihrer Familie verbracht.<br />
Unsere Sylvesterfeier im Klub war wie immer ein Erfolg. Die<br />
frischen Blumen, diesmal der Weihnachtsstern, wurden, wie<br />
immer, von unserer Blumenbinderin “Jolanta” von ABDANK<br />
Floristen gestiftet. Jolanta stifted dem Klub das ganze Jahr, für<br />
jede Festlichkeit, die Blumen, via Gerda Koepp. Wir sind Jolanta<br />
und Gerda zu Dank verpflichtet. So hier ist ein DANKE SCHÖN<br />
an die beiden im Namen der Mitglieder und dem Vorstand.<br />
Nun möchte ich darauf hinweisen, da diese Zeitung für März &<br />
April ist, bezahlen Sie doch bitte ihren Beitrag (Familie $70.00<br />
und Alleinstehende $50.00) bis Ende März, Anfang April bezahlt<br />
zu haben, da ja unsere Hauptversammlung am 9. April stattfindet.<br />
Es wurde mich freuen bis alles bis hin erledigt ist, vor<br />
dem Sommeranfang und der Cottagezeit. Auch unsere<br />
Statutenweisen darauf hin das der Beitrag bis zur<br />
Jahreshauptversammlung gezahlt sein muß.<br />
Eine erfreuliche Nachricht und ein herzliches Willkommen zu<br />

Our New Years Ball at the <strong>Club</strong> was, like always, a<br />

donated flowers throughout the year, via Gerda Koepp.<br />
In the name of the members and the board of directors<br />
our thanks go to Jolanta and Gerda.<br />
I would like to refer to our dues because this newspaper<br />

Bertha’s Muscle Car<br />
his is the true story of two very famous names, and about a name that should be more<br />
T famous: Bertha -- the mother of the road trip.<br />
By reliable estimates, there have been some 10,000 different makes of automobiles brought<br />
forth over the last 120 years of motoring history. In the United States alone, there have been<br />
around 3000 makes.<br />
Most of these makes long ago faded into automotive history. Some names still jog the memory -<br />
- Oldsmobile, Plymouth, Packard, Nash, Cord, Hudson, Duesenberg, to name a few.<br />
Others are lost in the mists of time -- Earl, Kearns, Metz, Standard, Unic, Crouch, Enfield-Allday,<br />
American-Electric, John O’Gaunt, and two of my French favorites, the ASS (yes, folks, the ASS) and, for the timid motorist in the early<br />
days, the Hurtu. (The French, of course, did not pronounce it “hurt you,” and the car stayed in business from 1896 to 1929.)<br />
But two motoring names -- both German -- that were instrumental to the birth of the automobile remain very much in the active vocabulary<br />
of the automobile industry today: Benz and Daimler.<br />
Early automotive archaeology uncovers many pioneers -- Cugnot, Trevithick, Serpollet, Bouton, and the Austrian eccentric, Siegfried<br />
Marcus, for instance; but the real beginning of practical production automobiles goes back to Germany 120 years ago and the two<br />
names mentioned above.<br />
Indeed, it was exactly 120 years ago this week (Jan 29th) that Karl Benz applied to the German government for a patent on his<br />
three-wheeled vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine.<br />
Patent number 37435 was issued in November of the same year and Benz & Co.’s “Patent-Motorwagen” became the real father of all<br />
motorcars. While other engineers, tinkerers and adventurers were basically trying to mate an engine to a horse-drawn wagon, Benz,<br />
the son of a railroad engine driver, set out to design a new piece of mobile technology, dedicated from the ground up for selfpropulsion.<br />
Although it may have looked carriage-like at first sight, largely because of its wheels, it was a unique vehicle incorporating many cutting<br />
edge achievements of the industrial age -- a tubular steel frame, a water-cooled radiator, electric ignition and, of course, a single<br />
cylinder four-stroke engine.<br />
But Benz was a bit of a slow burner. His business backers were reportedly furious at his continued fiddling and failure to market his<br />
creation. In the two years after the patent was issued, he built only three cars. His wife, Bertha Ringer Benz, was not pleased. She<br />
believed in her husband and, more importantly, believed there was a lot more to this car thing than he envisioned.<br />
Benz had made only very short trips around Mannheim in his vehicle while continuing to perfect it. Bertha would recharge the batteries<br />
for the ignition at night as she pumped the treadle of her sewing machine, which had been hooked up to a generator.<br />
Bertha proved to be a bit of generator herself. Very early one August morning in 1888, while Karl was off tinkering somewhere, she<br />
hauled one of the three wheelers out of the shop, gathered her two sons, Eugen, 15, and Richard, 14, and embarked on a truly historic<br />
road trip.<br />
She had not told Karl, but she had decided to drive his vehicle from their home in Mannheim to her hometown of Pforzheim, about<br />
60 miles away. This is a very quick drive today over the superb German roads. Back then it was an epic journey, especially since the<br />
vehicle, with its tiny 8/10 horsepower engine, could barely get out of its own way. Its top speed on the flat was about 10 miles an<br />
hour.<br />
Bertha’s sons were frequently employed pushing the Motorwagen up hills. The world’s first gas stop was made in the village of Wiesloch,<br />
where a bottle of “ligroin” (usually used to clean clothing) was purchased at an Apotheke, or drug store, and poured into the<br />
car’s tank before the amazed eyes of the proprietor.<br />
A weary, dusty but decidedly unbowed Bertha finally reached her parents’ house in Pforzheim shortly before sundown of a long summer<br />
day. She then sent a telegram informing her stunned husband of her successful journey.<br />
Talk about buzz! Bertha’s road trip quickly became shrouded in legend (Did she really clean the fuel line with her hairpin?) as tales of<br />
it spread across Europe and the car was shown at exhibitions in Munich and Paris.<br />
An encouraged Benz continued making improvements to his cars, soon switching from three to four wheels. His 3 horesepower Viktoria,<br />
of 1893, was especially popular. It was capable of a speed of 11 miles per hour. By 1900, Benz had sold more than 2500 cars<br />
and his reputation for quality automobiles was firmly established all over the world. (cont’d>)<br />

Meanwhile, unknown to Benz, another German engineer, Gottlieb Daimler, was entertaining his own dreams of self-propulsion.<br />
Daimler was an engine man, interested in powering whatever wheeled vehicles were at hand without the aid of horses. His first<br />
automobile, “built” within a few months of Benz’s in 1886, was an Amerikanisch style carriage, ordered from a prominent maker and<br />
then fitted with his proven engine and belt-drive running gear.<br />
Daimler’s engines were something else. The few internal combustion engines around at the time were hissing, coughing things that<br />
turned over at a top speed of about 180 revolutions per minute. But thanks to something called hot tube ignition and a cleverly designed<br />
exhaust valve, Daimler’s first engine (1883) was in effect the first “souped up” engine, running at 600 rpm and capable of<br />
running as high as 750 rpm.<br />
With his partner, the ingenious Wilhelm Maybach, he built, in 1885, the “Single Track,” an enormous and truly scary-looking motorcycle<br />
(the world’s first Hog!), constructed of iron and wood and incorporating a half-horsepower air-cooled internal combustion engine<br />
of very advanced design. It was an improved version of this engine that was bolted onto the carriage a year later.<br />
Daimler’s engines, thanks largely to Maybach’s imaginative engineering, became ever more powerful and reliable. But curiously,<br />
Daimler had to be goaded, largely by Maybach, into making vehicles designed from the ground up to be motor cars rather than motorized<br />
wagons or carriages. Then he had to be convinced that he should make his cars faster. Daimler had a hard time envisioning<br />
self-propelled vehicles going much faster than horse-drawn ones. He didn’t think drivers would be able to control anything faster.<br />
Plagued by illness and eventually forced to sell out his stake in his own company due to bad business decisions, Daimler seemed<br />
destined to fade into obscurity. But with Daimler gone as well as the brilliant Maybach (who had left because of a contract dispute),<br />
Daimler Motors was bereft of its technological brains and heart. The two friends, working on their own, continued to develop important<br />
motoring advances, including the atomizing carburetor, which would essentially reign until the wholesale advent of fuel injection.<br />
In 1895, at the insistence of a group of British industrialists interested in licensing Daimler engines,<br />
both Daimler and Maybach were brought back into the fold. The company moved from<br />
triumph to triumph. But the ailing Gottfried Daimler died in 1900, the same year that Maybach<br />
completed the design and building of a truly superb automobile that would permanently enshrine<br />
not only Daimler’s name but eventually that of Karl Benz. This was the mighty Mercedes.<br />
A magnetic, energetic man named Emil Jellinek, a Czech diplomat and businessman who was<br />
utterly smitten by automobiles, personally steered many of his wealthy friends into the purchase<br />
of Daimler cars. He had joined the board of Daimler in 1900 and he incessantly urged<br />
that the company build a faster, more powerful car to rise above growing competition.<br />
The result was a four-cylinder, 35 horsepower car with a striking pressed steel frame that most enthusiasts point to as the true<br />
“forefather of modern motor cars.” The car was capable of a then astounding average speed of 35 miles per hour. It ran good and it<br />
looked good. And Jellinek knew a good thing when he saw it.<br />
He secured sole sales rights for the car in France, Belgium, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the United States. But there was a bit<br />
of sticky business. The French firm of Panhard-Levassor had earlier acquired a license for Daimler cars in France. Jellinek had raced<br />
a 24-horsepower Daimler back in 1899, dubbing the car “Mercedes” after his eldest daughter. So he began selling this powerful new<br />
Daimler car under the name Mercedes.<br />
The car sold very well and acquired a world-wide reputation. So much so, that in 1902, Daimler Motors decided to adopt Mercedes<br />
as the name for all private cars it built. Only commercial vehicles -- trucks and buses -- would continue to be called Daimlers.<br />
The success of the Mercedes shocked Karl Benz out of a technological lethargy that had seen his company merely massaging older,<br />
proven designs. To compete he came up with better, bigger engines and more modern “car like” designs. One such was the famous<br />
200 horsepower “Blitzen Benz,” a four-cylinder (!!!) car which achieved a speed of over 140 miles an hour at Daytona Beach in 1911.<br />
Benz soon moved to 6 cylinder cars and in the early 1920s began developing ever more reliable and powerful diesel engines. In<br />
1924, the Daimler and Benz companies began merging interests, and in 1926, Daimler-Benz was formed.<br />
Soon Mercedes-Benz cars became a byword for high quality and performance. Strange as it may seem, Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler,<br />
two of the greatest pioneers of the automobile, working in the same country at the same time, never knew each other, although<br />
they are believed to have met once, briefly.<br />
Karl Benz died in 1929, having lived long enough to see the growing reputation of the merged companies. Bertha Benz, the woman<br />
who proved cars were definitely the way to go, died in 1944.<br />

Hello members and friends!<br />
Here we are into the 2nd month of the year<br />
already and looking forward to spring!<br />
The Ladies met in January and February,<br />
normally our winter break, to go over some<br />
important issues that have come up lately.<br />
Recently several of our members have experienced<br />
health problems and with most of<br />
us being in the higher age bracket, our workforce<br />
is lacking in strength. Therefore we<br />
decided to leave the kitchen at the <strong>Heimat</strong>abend<br />
to our excellent chef Trevor and his<br />
team. The Ladies Auxiliary is still a vital part<br />
of <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>. Don't worry, there will still<br />
be coffee and cake at the meetings, Christmas<br />
cookies at the bazaar and pretzels at<br />
Fiesta!<br />
Sadly, we said farewell to our member Ilse Eilert who passed away after a lengthy illness. Ilse will be missed by<br />
all of us. Also, best wishes for a speedy recovery go to Toni Blakholmer who underwent knee surgery recently.<br />
In March our ladies and their partners are looking forward to an evening of laughter and great food at the Class<br />
Act Dinner Theatre. The next meeting will be held on Wednesday, April 5. at 2 pm. (not 11 am. as<br />
in the past) in the member’s lounge. Please come and join us!<br />
See you at <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>!<br />

Websites of the Month: ^tÜÄ äÉÅ WÉÜyy<br />
A few members expressed concern over some activity at our <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong> forum. Of note were some people who registered<br />
to our forum on behalf of internet pornography sites. <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong> is a public forum, and anyone is free to join. That doesn’t<br />
mean we condone them joining (quite the contrary) but we can’t be held responsible for this. There is simply no way to precensor<br />
or filter people from joining our forum. The best we can do is simply keep an eye out for these people, and delete<br />
their memberships. This is an unfortunate way for them to hopefully generate more traffic to their websites, in much the<br />
same way spam is sent to your email address. The forums are a great and powerful tool when used properly, and we won’t<br />
let these people compromise the integrity of our forum. I will keep a better eye out on this issue, but if you notice anything<br />
unusual feel free to email me.<br />
Here’s a link to a bi-monthly German newsletter similar to our own, but for the Ottawa area. It lists the events happening at<br />

This is a great website to look up anything! It’s an open online encyclopedia that anyone is free to contribute to. It is quite<br />
large now, and in many languages. Check it out: www.wikipedia.org<br />

hat a tremendous evening W our recent Karneval dance<br />
was as our own 1st K.G. <strong>Loreley</strong><br />
Oshawa celebrated it’s 3 x 11 anniversary.<br />
We had a full house<br />
thanks to the many other<br />
Karneval groups that joined us. In<br />
attendance were guests from the<br />
K.G. Hansa Brampton, K.G.<br />
Treuer Husar Toronto, K.G. Narrhalla<br />
58 Hamilton, K.G. Narrenzunft<br />
Concordia Kitchener,<br />
K.G. Ontario Prinzengarde and<br />
K.G. Treuer Husar Mississauga<br />
who also brought their Senior<br />
dancers. A special thanks to the<br />
dancers for their performances<br />
which included the first showing<br />
Karneval - Jan 28th 2006<br />
of this years version of the<br />
Funkengarde as well as the Can Can, a traditional crowd favorite. The Kindertots were the darlings of the evenings, their<br />
smiles seemed to light the whole place up!<br />
A special thanks to our master of Ceremonies, Tom Henninger, for a job well done. The hall was beautifully decorated. The<br />
many Ordens on display from days gone by added to the history of the evening. As always, Trevor and his staff provided an<br />
excellent dinner with dessert. The band was Euro Connection and they were perfect for the evening. They knew all the appropriate<br />
marching songs and were very helpful in keeping the evening flowing smoothly. The number of people that wore costumes<br />
was just awesome!! The judges had a hard time picking the best ones but in my opinion, everyone deserved a prize<br />
just for participating. Thanks so much for getting into the spirit…it really set the mood!<br />
Over the course of the evening, I received many positive comments from guests about our club, especially about the feeling<br />
of “gemütlichkeit”. A special thanks to the Board of Directors of <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong> for their generous donation to our Karneval<br />
group in recognition of our contributions to the evening. We really appreciate your continued support and look forward to<br />
working together to continue making <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong> an exciting and fun place to be!<br />
Our Karneval group is really trying to stay active in the German-Canadian Mardi Gras Society (BDKK). We’ve already attended<br />
Karneval functions with K.G. Treuer Husar Mississauga and K.G. Narrenzunft Concordia Kitchener in November and our Seniors<br />
have been invited to perform at the Karneval dance at K.G. Hansa Brampton on Feb 25.<br />
We’ve been invited to perform at our clubs Miss <strong>Loreley</strong> Pageant on March 4. Our Kinders, Juniors and Seniors are working<br />
hard in preparation for competition in Hamilton on April 8. Congratulations to Alex Burghardt (Kinder), Annie Williams (Junior)<br />
and Jennie Gough (Senior) for being chosen as this years Funkenmariechen. Each of them will be performing a Funke solo at<br />
competition. Meghan Harper (Senior), will be performing a freestyle solo. Best of luck to all of our girls!<br />
On April 22, our girls are looking forward to performing at our clubs <strong>Heimat</strong> <strong>Abend</strong>. The Kindertots and Kinders are once again<br />
invited to the Hansa Haus on April 30 to participate in their annual Kinderfest, a fun filled afternoon of dance and games.<br />

Karneval was very well attended and was a great success. I wish to thank all of the people involved especially Holly<br />
Henninger, her Committee and the <strong>Loreley</strong> Youth Dancers. This was one of the best in recent years due to the fact<br />
that it was our 3 x 11 celebration and friends from other Karneval groups were present. I thank them all.<br />
By the time this report comes out we will have crowned a new Miss <strong>Loreley</strong> and Mini Miss at the Pageant on March<br />
4th. I am certain that these new representatives will serve our club faithfully in the German tradition.<br />
Shortly I will be involved in Fiesta and will be starting to plan our float for the parade and am asking for volunteers<br />
to come forward. Any help even for a couple of hours would be greatly appreciated. This is a large undertaking and<br />
the more hands make light work. For the past two years we have been awarded the Presidents’ Choice trophy for<br />
our float. A third win in a row would be a record for <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong>.<br />
At our upcoming membership meeting there will be decisions announced on amendments to our by-laws. It would<br />
be to everyone’s advantage to attend this membership meeting as it will affect the future of our club.<br />
In closing, I hope that more people volunteer to help keep the club healthy and prosperous and that everyone has<br />
a very Happy Easter.<br />

Schulden!<br />
Der schönste Teil der Menschen-Huld<br />
Ist: zu vergeben eine Schuld!<br />
Ich sprech’ da nicht grad’ gleich vom Geld<br />
obwohl das auch recht dazu zählt.<br />
Und es ist leichter, wenn man dacht’,<br />
Dass man die Schuld nicht selbst gemacht.<br />
Und auch ist’s manchmal nicht gleich klar<br />
Wer nun der rechte Schuldner war…<br />
Erst sollt’ man lernen früh im Leben<br />
sich vorerst selber zu vergeben.<br />
Das ist nicht leicht, (und dies ist richtig):<br />
Man macht doch immer alles richtig !??<br />
Und zweitens ist’s auch so im Leben:<br />
Was man nicht hat, kann man nicht geben.<br />
Zum “Schuld vergeben”, seh’ ich ein,<br />
Muss selbst auch ich mal schuldig sein!<br />
Herzlichen Dank - ctâÄ `≤ÄÄxÜ<br />
eulich kramte ich durch meinen Schreibtisch und fand eine “Get well” Karte vom <strong>Club</strong> <strong>Loreley</strong> Vorstand – und alle<br />
N meine Sünden fielen mir ein. Das Datum: Sept./2005…<br />
Erstmals möchte ich mich nachträglich recht herzlich dafür bedanken. Die Karte erreichte mich im Krankenhaus genau zu<br />
einem Zeitpunkt in dem ich viel Trost und “Stütze” brauchte (nach einer Knie-Operation).<br />
Nochmals recht herzlichen Dank, es geht mir jetzt viel, viel besser .<br />
P.S. Zur Busse für die Verspätung kam die Muse mir zur Hilfe in einem kleinen Gedicht:<br />

Ilse Eilert<br />

Whitby, Ontario<br />
Beloved wife of the late<br />
Ferdinand Eilert and dear friend of Paul Pantermöller.<br />
Loving Oma to Christa, Scott and Corinna Eilert.<br />
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,<br />
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.<br />
Lift up your heart and share with me,<br />
God wanted me now, He set me free.<br />
Wojciech Gniewek<br />

Pickering, Ontario<br />
Beloved husband of Erika,<br />
Loving father of Chris and Anthony.<br />
Wojciech will be sadly missed by his brothers<br />
and sisters and their families.<br />
I could not stay another day,<br />
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.<br />
Tasks left undone must stay that way,<br />
I’ve found that peace at the end<br />
of the day.<br />
Marie Yvette Delores<br />

I’m following the path God laid for me.<br />
I took his hand when I heard his call,<br />
I turned my back and left it all.<br />
