The German American Klub hosted a very pleasant outdoor Mayday celebration on Saturday, May 1, 2021 at the GAK’s very own Edelweiss Restaurant in German Park on Indy’s South Side. This year’s Maibaum theme honored local German-American organizations, including our very own Indianapolis-Cologne Sister City Partnership Committee! The very cordial and welcoming GAK president Travis Jerde presided over the evening’s festivities. The Maibaumaufstellen was accompanied by GAK’s folk dance troupe Die Fledermäuschen, set to the the delightful musical stylings of the versatile DysFUNKtion Brass Band.
