"Happy 2025 to all our SAFS members and families!
Like most of you, I am starting to think about changes I want to see for this coming year. One of my social goals includes our club and its outreach to young families as well as our older members. We made good strides in 2024 to create new events tailored to specific age groups (like kids cooking class and seniors-only meeting) and I would like to continue and improve on that.
In general I wish that we can all embrace this new year with a fresh attitude and the energy to change up the "same-old" with a sprinkle of adventure and some extra fun:
Heb Sorg zu jedem Tag im Jahr
Taenk noed a Herbscht im Februar
Freu Di, waenn Freud chasch wiitergaeh
Lah Dir au Dini Traeum noed nee.
(translated loosely: cherish each day of the year
Don't think about fall in February
Be happy when you can pass on joy
Don't let go of your dreams)
You are a member of this club and should as such make it your own: voice your opinion, share your ideas and be part of the movement to bring Swiss Culture into our American lives.
I look forward to seeing you all at one of our events soon.
Herzlichst,
Heidi Gallegos-Tornare
SAFS President
