Parts market and general meeting<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

Once again this year, we were able to welcome many members to the above events. A number of items were bought and sold at the parts market and a report on the past year was given at the general meeting. Elections were also held. A detailed report including photos will appear in the next issue. <\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

Annual meeting R\u00f6merstein<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

This year’s annual meeting in R\u00f6merstein was a complete success. Over 500 Unimogs from near and far attended. The organizing regional group G\u00f6ppingen\/Stauferland had prepared everything well and the weather gods also played along. The small village and its surroundings were made unsafe by the Unimog fans. A detailed report including photos will appear in the next issue.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

Annual meeting RG Palatinate<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

The Palatinate regional group has found a new location for its annual meeting – in the vineyards, as befits the Palatinate. The Metz vineyard in Meckenheim was the perfect place for this event. Many Unimog friends had been waiting for this event and then took advantage of it. The preparation by our two regional representatives, Erik Engel and Stefan Jung, was a success. Numerous possible applications with the Unimog were demonstrated on the action area and the dealer mile, with our club store, was also interesting and was actively used. The disco in the evening rounded off the day’s program. We are looking forward to next year. <\/p>\n<\/div>
