Bingo!
Ceremonial Keg Tapping
Carnival
Presented by local nonprofit organization, Join the Movement to Stop Human Trafficking.
Germans started playing Bingo in the 1880's as a tool to help children learn math. Now you can play a round at Das Fest for a chance to win one of several great prizes. BUT, if you have the winning card, you'll need to yell "Volltreffer" like they do in Germany. Cost to play.
