Easter Traditions
All our organizations follow an Easter
ritual of gatherings. They are modeled around family and
children.
 In the Hansa Club of Brampton the Easter Bunny comes
every year and brings lots of eggs and baskets and toys for the
children. While parents, grandparents and great grandparents sit
around and enjoy coffee and cake to the sound of
 Albert Dittgen,
the little ones are kept busy with arts and crafts activities
until the bunny actually shows up after the initial Easter egg
hunt.

The Weiss Blau Bayern also came to entertain their own
with the children dancing the Schuplattler routines they
rehearse every week. Perhaps they found new enthusiasts among
the younger children that were too young last year to join.

 This year the bunny was especially good with the kids. It was a
joy to watch the heartfelt interaction and the reactions of the
children. But what am I saying, just look at the pictures!
 Everyone was very happy, even the big kid named Sybille, who was
surprised with her own Easter basket. What a treat!
 Until next time
