- get vendors to offer a better variety of ethnic food (there were just 2 vendors with anything remotely German and they both offered Bratwurst) and sauerkraut
- how about schnitzel, currywurst, Schwenkbraten (German pork steaks), kase spaetzle, ****offelbrei (mashed potatoes), and Rote Grütze
- hand out words to the favorite German drinking songs and cheers
- on cooler days, Glühwein would be a big hit
- sell a small glass on a strap that goes around your neck and hold a Wein probieren where people get to taste a different wine (at no additional cost) at each corner of the square
- polka dancing instruction

Food for thought...

When is Octoberfest this year.......and where???

I don't believe Octoberfest is on the list of approved events.
