Live music will be provided by Worsbrough Brass who will themselves be in Schwäbisch Gmünd visiting Musikverein Stadtkapelle in July at the same time as the society visit this year.
A large colour display with many photographs and lots of information about Schwäbisch Gmünd will provide the answers to the quiz questions and a line drawing of Marienbrunnen and Johanniskirche in Schwäbisch Gmünd has been chosen as the colouring competition for the younger ones. There will also be a cabinet display of scrapbooks, photo albums and memorabilia which can be perused by people with a genuine interest.
