Deutscher Stammtisch Twin-Cities

From 1999 until 2005 I organized Stammtisch a monthly German speaking group in the St. Paul/Minneapolis area. Lisa Delano was the organizer and the founder of the group before me. In 2005 I founded with Niko Trawney and Nicole Grewling the German Student Association Minnesota (GSAM). If you are interested in German culture and language in a great social community feel free to join GSAM.
