Annual general meeting of the home care association in the sign of preview and review as well as honors.
Andels book. In the reactivated Taubensaal in Andelsbuch, Chairman Richard Bilgeri was able to welcome numerous interested visitors to the annual general meeting of the Bregenzerwald heritage association. The Heimatpflegeverein is the largest association in the Bregenzerwald with 1,260 members.
Visibly proud, the chairman reported on the highlights of the past year. For example, he celebrated the joint ceremony with Juppenwerkstatt and INTTracht on the occasion of the award of the intangible cultural heritage, the 4-day trip to South Tyrol, the traditional Bregenzerwald costume day, the forest evening with the presentation of the Bregenzerwald booklet, the forest Christmas in Bezau and the drawing competition “All about the forest costume” especially. Many interesting events are planned for the current year.
Well-deserved honors were bestowed on three members of the association. As a founding member, Jürgen Metzler was involved in the establishment of the Bregenzerwald home care association. In addition, he was active as a treasurer and auditor for many years. As a long-standing board member and secretary, Fridolin Mätzler has rendered outstanding services to the home care association. Erwin Feldkircher was a founding member and was particularly active in the life of the association. All three honorees also contributed their articles to Bregenzerwald magazines that are well worth reading.
