The Gemuetlichkeit Days organization has promoted camaraderie in our community since 1971. It has brought people together that perhaps would not have gotten to know one another. Many new friendships have been forged because of Gemuetlichkeit Days. This organization has touched the lives of many people especially those 41 local couples who were honored to serve as the Gemuetlichkeit Days King and Queen for a year.
Everyone who has been involved in Gemuetlichkeit has helped our Gemuetlichkeit family grow. We celebrate our community and one another every year; and we want to remember the special people who became a part of our family, but are no longer with us. If we have missed someone special to Gemuetlichkeit Days we apologize. Please let us know who we missed, so we can add them to this special list.
