***image1***In the first semester of 2007, the German-American Friendship Association Siegelbach offers German classes for beginners and continuing students.
Classes mostly run for 15 weeks and take place in the Siegelbach Hauptschule (high school).
“In our classes, our instructors also want to teach a little bit about German culture and traditions,” said Anne Smith, GAFAS vice president. “By learning German, you can make friends for a lifetime.”
The association also offers a variety of group events which include walks, hikes, trips and games.
Kegel evenings, which take place once a month, start 8 p.m. today at the Burgherrenhalle in Hohenenecken.
