About Us
Our Flag
Our
flag
(right)
is
the
first
flag
of
the
Alpenrose
Schuhplattler
Verein.
The
flag,
handmade
in
Germany,
was
dedicated
at
the
Alpenrose's
Fahnenweihe
held
at
the
Lancaster
Host
Resort,
June
30-July 2, 2006.
The
flag
design
depicts
the
culture
and
traditions
of
German
heritage
that
the
Verein
strives
to
uphold;
the
reverse
side
honors
the
rich
farmland
of
Lancaster
Co.,
Pennsylvania,
home
of
the
Lancaster

where
the
Alpenrose
Schuhplattlers
practice

sponsor
events.
The
flag
is considered a visual representation of the Verein.
