1000 Mountains
From Friday the 9th of May till Sunday the 11th we had our spring meeting in Rüthen. We stayed at Rüthen Spitze Warte Hotel, a lovely place in the Sauerland. The Team of the Hotel was really nice and at both evening dinners we were able to enjoy delicious food. At Friday 10 Teams from different places like Berlin, Münster, Münsterland, Düsseldorf, Heidelberg, Pfalz and Lippstadt arrived, moved into their rooms and had a wonderful evening together, enjoying interesting conversations. At Saturday morning we started our drive through the Sauerland at 10 am. After the 2 hours drive, we visited the manufacture “Willinger Glasbläserei “. Here we were explained how art is created from glass. After we had a lunch break at the Forsthaus Hotel in Willingen near to the Skywalk and the Mühlenkopfschanze (Ski jump) all participants were free to decide if they want to have a closer look at the Ski jump or a walk in 100 Meters high trough the Skywalk. Than we went back to our Hotel in Rüthen. At 6 pm we stated again by using taxis to our visit at the Sauerländer Edelbrennerei a german Destillerie which produces a lot of tasty drinks including a german whiskey which won at 2024 an international competition. After visiting and tasting the products we enjoyed another lovely evening with nice people. After our breakfast at Sunday all participants drove back home. We all are looking forward to our autumn meeting at the Heidelberg area from the 10th till the 12th of October. If you want to join us - please feel free to send me an email. M. H.
