Bavarian Night
On Saturday, November 19, 2016 we will be holding our annual "Bavarian Night" in Honor of Elsie Lappoehn (1919-2013), Founder of the German-American Club of Nevada. We are planning a fun evening for you ! The Ginger Snaps are providing the music and the Lustigen Schuhplattler, under the direction of Art Ruckle and Reiner Knopp, will make the evening very enjoyable with their beautiful folk dancing !

Silvia and her Haxenmeister Skip and Crew will be the Chefs. You have a choice of Schweinehaxe (pork shank) for $ 17.00 or Beef Rouladen (Top Sirloin stuffed with onion, bacon, and pickle in a brown gravy) for $ 15.00.

Since this event sells out quickly, please make your reservations ASAP by leaving your name and number on the club phone. Specify how many in your party and which dinner you prefer. Looking forward to seeing you there ! Ein Prosit !!

Call 702-201-1448 to reserve your place for dinner.
