Gasthof Baier Get-together

Ski Club Schwandorf and Kinderland Events
Due to the ongoing snow shortages and warming trends in the region, the Ski Club Schwandorf has made some adjustments to their schedule. While specific updates from the club are yet to be confirmed, the general situation suggests that the club may have had to adapt their schedule in response to insufficient snow conditions, as is common for many Bavarian ski organizations under current climate impacts.
The last ski gymnastics of the year took place today, but the courses for December 28 and 29 on the Arber have been postponed due to lack of snow. The new date for the kindergarten children's day, which was initially scheduled for December 20 in the Kinderland on the Arber, will be announced in due time.

Youth Brass Band and Other Events
The Youth Ski Day and the Club Championships are scheduled for January 17. Furthermore, the Schwarzenfeld Youth Brass Band's brass group is providing the music for the Christmas devotion, and they are expected to take place on January 3/4 and 10/11, provided there is sufficient snow.
