Here's the message that I"ve been saving, and wishing I could attend. Mona --------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Leslie A.

First of all, do not confuse this with the Pommerntage (plural), or Pommerntreffen, that is held every two years in Greifswald in Vorpommern. The Pommerntag Mary Ann Conklin was speaking of is the one sponsored by Pommerscher Verein Freistadt. It is a one-day affair held on the last Sunday of June. This year it will be held at Mequon City Park in Mequon, Wisconsin. We will have continuous entertainment with music by the Alte Kameraden Brass Band and Pomeranian folk dancing by Pommersche Tanzdeel Freistadt. There will be cultural and genealogical exhibits and German food. Also, the best beer this side of Munich will be available. Activities will begin at noon and will continue until about five. There will be a flag raising of the American and Pomeranian flags and we will sing "The Star Spangled Banner" and "Das Pommernlied". Martha and I expect to be there and so do several other members of Pommern-L. Les Riggle ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

I'm really ignorant here and would like to be enlightened on what the background and translation of Pommern Tag is?
