Walpurgis Night Marshmallow Roast
Walpurgis Night: is observed throughout Europe with local variations. Walpurgis, is when witches are said to hold a large celebration on Brocken (the highest peak in the Harz mountain range). In many areas the tradition is to have bonfires to fend off those witches. The bonfire celebrations are often considered as big of a holiday as New Years eve or Christmas eve. Some areas also consider this to be the ushering out of the cold winter weather and the welcoming of the warmer summer weather.
This is a family friendly event, all ages young and old are welcome to attend!
