From Our President!
Hope everyone is doing well and looking forward to the Summer season. We have many events coming this Spring and Summer. We hope to see many of you on Friday nights in our picnic grove to enjoy our Biergarten and a variety of bands.
Our Schnitzel Supper was a big success and I would like to thank all the volunteers who came out to help. We would not be able to have these events without our volunteers.
Hope you have a wonderful summer.
Bes Wishes,
Kathy Hoenisch,
President

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE
BOARD REGARDING MEMBERSHIP CARDS
The Executive Board of the German American Society kindly asks that all of our members make an effort to have their membership cards on them at all times when visiting the club for member or public events. If asked by an employee or staff member to show your membership card, we request that you politely do so. This is not meant as a slight toward you personally, we are a large club with a rotating staff and everyone does not always know each other.
It is very important for members to have their membership card on their person as it is required by law and keeps us in compliance with the New Jersey Alcoholic Beverage Commission. Not doing so risks penalties for our club and possible loss of our liquor license.
If you do not have your membership card or need a replacement, contact our Membership Secretary at
membership@gasociety.org
