Saying goodbye to Mike Billo 

Our wonderful, long-time members Marianne Billo and Christina Billo Winquest are mourning the loss of their son and brother, Mike Billo.  Although Mike was never an Edelweiss member, we all got to know him because he and his beautiful family were often at our events.  And, of course, we have all followed his 15-year battle against a brain tumor.  Our hearts go out to Marianne and Christina as well as the rest of the family members who loved Mike.  The family has invited their Edelweiss family to come to the memorial service: 

  • Saturday, April 13, 2019, Memorial Mass - 10:00am (in state at 9:30am): St. Isaac Jogues Catholic Church, 21100 Madison Street, St. Clair Shores, MI 48081
  • Luncheon following to celebrate his life from 12-5 pm at: Fraternal Order of Eagles 23631 Greater Mack Ave, St. Clair Shores, MI 48080

Ruhe in Frieden

Irish? Bayrisch? Spend the Day with Us! 

Sunday, March 17, is St. Patrick's Day, favorite day of the Irish and the Irish-Wannabes. But YOU can come spend the day with the Bayrisch! It's Edelweiss's dance practice and general meeting day. There will be fun and beer (hmmm, probably not green though) and friends. Come to the GACC room at the Carpathia Club and see what we're all about.

To those going to the Gaufest, bring along your check made out to GTEV Edelweiss to pay for your tickets ($225 per person). 

Carpathia Hall -- 38000 Utica Rd, Sterling Heights, MI 48312.  Practice as 12:30; meeting at 3.

Who's Going to Toledo on Funday, Feb. 24? 

OK, so it's really on Sunday, Feb. 24.  But "Funday" is a much better description of what our Frühschoppen with the BSC Holzhacker Buam is all about.  It starts off with a traditional Bavarian breakfast of Weisswurst, Weissbier, Brezen, and lots more great food at 11 am.  After that, we'll be dancing Schuhplattler, Boarischer, and Volkstänze together. Our friends from Bavarian Club Chiemgau in Windsor will be along for the fun, too.  Each club will teach the others a new dance.  Of course, plenty of visiting with friends is a must.  It'll be fun, so don't miss out!  The day is at the Bavarian Sports Club Hall, a great place with reasonably priced drinks, a delicious breakfast, and a fun atmosphere. 

Bavarian Sports Club, 2102 LaGrange St., Toledo, Ohio
